  Anyone got any links to documentation for what you can do within the law, in creating a new typeface. Is it possible to use an existing typeface as a blueprint and modify etc etc.

  Cheers

  from the article above:
  "When creating a new typeface it is wrong to use any information from another designer's font unless you have his or her permission. This includes taking elements or even single points out of existing fonts."
