Good Font to make a '4'
I'm making a calendar for some first grade students and one of the things they need to do with it is trace over the numbers.
I fired up AppleWorks and made the calendar in 'Drawing' but realized that the '4' isn't the same as the way the kids draw it. I looked through a bunch of fonts but couldn't find anything that resembled the way they draw a '4' (they draw it open, not closed). The '0' was not right either as it had a line through it but that was easily fixed with another close looking font (if I really had to, I would have used a capital O).
But when it comes to the '4', I'm stuck.
Any ideas?
