I need app recommendations for creating fonts
I don't want to draw some fonts in the app, i want to be able to just import a PNG, and then use that to write the letter a for example,
All the other apps usually only have crappy drawing tools, and i prefer using ibis paint x
It doesn't have to appear as a keyboard z i might just need to code it so that if i input text it translates it to that font
The font doesn't even have to be copy-paste-able it can also just be saved as a jpg/PNG, idk
If anyone knows anything that works, please tell me

You can export an SVG font. All the established font editors can generate them. They might not be as scaleable (depending on your svg’s) and the file size might be quite big compared to outline fonts.
Also keep in mind: making fonts is not the easiest thing.
Look up RoboFont, Glyphs or Fontlab. Those are three mayor editors (the ones I use mostly). Tutorials on exporting SVG fonts can be found on the Google :)
