Hi /gd/ - looking to make my own script, font, whatever and I was wondering if Adobe Illustrator is a decent tool to use for the task.
I would use this site: http://www.myscriptfont.com/
But a) My handwriting is atrocious and b) I require a bunch of special snowflake characters.

Shameless self bump
ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR IS ABSOLUTELY THE PROGRAM YOU WANT TO USE! BUT, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU INVEST INTO THE WHOLE ADOBE ECOSYSTEM FOR THE FULL EXPERIENCE.

Well, anon. Adobe Illustrator is a fine tool to use for typeface design, but you might run on to some trouble when you need to assemble all of it into an actual usable format (say, for example, otf).
You might want to give FontLab or BirdFont a go.
Pic is something i am currently working on.

I thank you for your suggestion and wish you luck on your font.
