sIFR Generator

The goal of Font Burner is to make it as easy as possible for people to incorporate rich typography into their websites. All the fonts found on this site use sIFR, a system for converting fonts into a form that can be used online. It can be a bit hard for a newcomer to get it to work the first time and it can be expensive if you don’t own Adobe Flash. I wanted to point you towards a couple sites that help overcome those obstacles. 

The first site is called sIFR Generator. It is an online tool that makes it easy to convert True Type fonts to a swf file that you can use with siFR. It is compatible with sIFR 3 and might just be the easiest way to generate sIFR font files. If you don’t want to shell out the cash for the arguably overpriced Flash software it is definitely your best option.

The second site I want to point you to is css-tricks.com, where there is a video tutorial about how to use sIFR 3. If you are a visual learner like myself, you are going to find this tutorial is for you. If you are lucky your days of stumbling through the sIFR documentation are over. And while I am on the topic of good sIFR tutorials, you might want to look at these instructions on Design Intellection. Good stuff.

I hope you find these links useful. Good luck with your sIFRing!
