Hi Jonathan,

There are many SVG tools you can use.  You can create the SVG images 
directly or you can create SVG images from your handwriting. I think I 
used potrace with our PNG images to create the original SVG images.

Once you have the SVG images ready, you can use the SignWriting 2010 
Tools to package them into a font file.

Regards,

-Steve
