How?
I been screwing around in Illustrator now I want to make a font. What do you use to make the fonts readable? What do you use personally to manage your fonts? I used Exestensis for along time but I'm not sure if there is a better one. I heard Linotype makes a font manager. Is it better that Exestensis?

Use your mad type skillz to make the font readable. Linotype FontExplorer is pretty good. You will need font creation software to compile the font and actually load it on a machine, though.

I have Fontographer running on an old Mac (OS 9) that is still really great at creating typefaces.
