Following the spirit of Sol Lewitt's wall drawing instructions, the font was generated using simple instructions. These instructions were executed by A. Bill Miller to create a set of decorative glyphs. Some glyphs were repeated - this was done for special character symbols and non-English language characters (for example). When applied to any text sample, gridfont7 becomes an aesthetic and conceptual representation of language. gridfont7 is a custom True Type Font created with FontForge and is available as a free download from the artist.
