Font Aid V received over 500 glyphs from 44 countries in a single week.

Behind the scenes, Neil Summerour and Grant Hutchinson are up to their elbows in Fontlab assembling the typeface.

Once completed, the final OpenType font will be available for US$20 through several distributors.

With the help of Sogo Japan, all proceeds from sales of the font and specimen will be delivered directly to organizations in Japan, such as AMDA International.
