Love the tutorial, and can follow perfectly. Great job. I'm having huge problems with the file types though. I can't open the file in Photoshop CS6, Artweaver doesn't open the file type, and Paint.Net can't save it as DXT5. I also can't find any valid converter which would convert it to such. How are you guys doing that? ^^
Here are some links for you. They were pretty easy to find, both of the options are perfectly valid.
- If you want to go for the completely free option:
Download GIMP:

Install the DDS plugin:

- If you already have Photoshop in your computer, then just install the nVidia DDS plugin,
that's how you open and save texture files with this software:
nVidia DirectX Draw Surface plugin:

By the way, the outline editing part is mostly optional, you can skip it and the font will look good enough for most casual needs.
It's just there for completeness. The only difference is that the side log text and its campaign settlement signs will have a stronger shadow effect.
