I would like to create a own font in photoshop like an image, and convert it later to use my font in many cases.

Anyone know how can I do this?

Well, there are two ways. The incorrect one and the correct one.

The incorrect is using Photoshop. The correct is using a special software to do that.

Some options are

Fontographer, Font forge. Corel Draw allows to export thoose too.

Take a look at this google search.

The reason for using a special software is that there are a loot of info that needs to be adresed, what font it is when you type a key, what is the baseline, the kerning, etc.



In photoshop you can make a letterhead sign, and export it as an image, and of course you can use it on windows, as an image. But not as TTF or OTF.



Edited.

Design is actually a multy-step process. Probably you can design your basic shapes and styles on Photoshop, for example a callygraphy one. And use it as a base to draw it later in a more suitable format.
