Great font find Barneyrfd ! Think your "test" letter looks realy cool.
Already tried to find a font for the SD letters while back with no success.
Beside the font questions i would like to repeat Barneyrfd questions about the "online tutorial for this font fading template" mentioned by KramStaar. Such tutorial would be pretty cool, not only for this SD letter
In addition: Do we know if the content of the original SD letters have been modified for the movie to match the deciphered code?
Or the they made the code to match the original letters? :wacko :confused
There are handwriting fonts that change their characteristics if you use the alt keys+numeric codes. For example, instead of writing "and" you can also use ALT+123 and the font inserts the full word "and" which is different from the word you created using the letters a, n, d. Similarly, if you suddenly want an inkspot you might use alt+325 or a crossed out word would be created using another set of keystrokes.
These features are typically associated with purchased fonts but the end result is striking because the font varies in characteristics - just like a traditional handwritten letter.
As an aside, its also a good thing to remember that the ink changes density as you write and this fading can be achieved using a specially created template you insert into the letters which gives the impression of fading or varying density ink. The insert you make (if you're using sepia ink for example) would grade itself from deep brown to a light brown in random areas.
