Welcome to FontStudio3D 1.31!

FontStudio3D is a very simple utility that loads TrueType(tm)
fonts, and extrudes them into 3-D fonts (polygon data).
You can save as 3-D format as DXF(tm) or POV(1.0 or 2.2),
to exchange the generated 3-D polygon data into other 3-D
modeling or rendering applications.

To use FontStudio3D, you need to have an appropriate PC
and MS-Windows 3.1 with TrueType(tm) for Windows.
We will recommend to keep enough free disk space on your
hard disk:
