I like making maps.
Sadly, I'm really bad at it. Really, really bad. Awful, even.
I've tried a couple of different commercial products, but none of them are quite intuitive enough for my purposes. It hit me today, though, that there might be another way for me to manage.
Fonts. There are a lot of different symbol type fonts out there, and it would be very easy indeed to just type map symbols into Paint, or Excel, and move them around to get what I want.
Unfortunately, I can't find a font that has the sort of thing that I'm looking for. A mountain or two, trees, hills, cities...that sort of thing. The sort of symbols that you get in Campaign Cartographer, say.
Does anyone know of such a font? Commercially available or otherwise?
