Will FFG release the font - particularly the dice symbols for the game?
Reading through the recently available "A Day Late..." adventure, I noticed that die results are often referenced. As I write my own campaign and support materials, I would like it to be formatted in the same way. As much as NezNotation is useful, I would rather be able to develop and print an organic set of results in my adventures and notes for others to use.
I'm using Dominican and dejavu serif for the scenario. Yes, it would be nice to have the dice color fonts. NEz-notation works for now.
jh
If someone has font creation software, I'd be willing to create vectors for all the relevant dice symbols.
I'm looking for one in the meantime.
EDIT UPDATE: I've got a Font Creator application.
Do you think that I have permission to create a dice symbol based font?

A skull is a skull is a skull. I don't think there would be an issue with it if you made your own. If you borrowed graphics that were already created, you would have to ask permission (like I have - I'm still awaiting an answer).
I'd ask anyway, but I'm guessing making your own wouldn't be an issue.
Edit: I would REALLY love to have this font... That, zipped into a package with the symbol JPGs I've made would be just about all a writer needs to make scenarios. I'd also like to see a pro background, parchment or something, that looks good with Warhammer material and is royalty free.

-Seconded!
I just want to help out... 
You get to keep the credit, Nezzir!
I'm not interested in credit, just the tool. A font would be an amazing tool for writers!
I'm working on a scenario now called 'Foundation for Vengeance'. Importing all the little pictures (that I don't have permission to use yet) are a pain in the rear. Having that font would be very helpful.
Edit: Anyone skilled enough to make us a nice 'free to the community' background for scenarios and other tools? Someone made a nice parchment with a line at the top and bottom with the skull crux in the center. I don't know what the status is of it though. It came in a fillable PDF.
Here's the PDF I'm talking about:
javascript:void(0);/*1259020136340*/
it's perfect, but I can't remember where I got it and it doesn't look very 'free to use'. If someone could make something similar to this it would be awesome! Unfortunately, my skills do not lie in those areas.
