Hey everyone, I want to create a stencil for the common elements I use when journaling. Reference picture attached. Now that I figured out how to work with text in FreeCAD, I hit the unexpected but in hindsight obvious roadblock of finding a font that can be printed “negatively”? I am not sure how to properly word it, but the gist is that the text can’t have parts disconnected from the rest of the stencil. Check the uppercase B and D letters in the picture, i.e. Dafont.com has the Stencil category, but everything in there is pretty military looking. So my question is: Does anyone know of a freely available font for such a use case?


He’s not talking about designing your own font. He is proposing to use the font you like and just to create this little “bridge” that you need so that the inside of the o is not falling out manually. That is easy to do and there are not that many letters where it is needed.
