Project description:
"I am looking to hire an experienced font designer / typeface developer who can work on a custom font project for the Nuwabic language, specifically for the Nubic script, which is a linked/cursive script. This project was previously started with another developer who could not complete it, so you will be continuing and completing the work.

The Nubic script includes:
• Full alphabet set with starting, middle, and ending letter forms
• Character linking rules
• A complete keyboard map
• Reference files from the previous developer to help understand the script structure

I will provide:
• Font reference files and examples of the script
• All existing assets including character list and shape breakdowns
• Documentation of required letter positions (initial, medial, final forms)

Requirements:
• Strong experience with font creation tools (such as FontForge, Glyphs App, FontLab, etc.)
• Understanding of cursive / connected script behaviors
• Ability to implement OpenType features (e.g. contextual alternates for linked letters)
• Strong communication and ability to work from reference material

Deliverables:
• A fully working functional font file (OTF/TTF)
• All linking and contextual rules correctly implemented
• Final master file and vector files for future modifications

Bonus Skills:
• Experience with custom script or non-Latin font development
• Prior work creating keyboard layouts or language-specific typography

If you have relevant experience, please send:
• Portfolio or samples of similar work (especially non-Latin or script fonts)
• Estimated timeline and cost

Only highly experienced freelancers.

If you’ve designed non-Latin or heritage scripts before, please include those samples so I can gauge stylistic fit. I’m excited to see how you’ll bring the Nuwabic script to life." (client-provided description)
