New feature added to create a new letter face from the oversize visible layers for existing custom font layers.

I got fed up of doing this manually for custom fonts that shared a similar (but random looking) appearance.

The filter reduces the time taken to do this enormously.
The custom font workflow now goes like this:

Find a font shape that you like - use MareroQ's script to grab the individual letter layers - find/create a suitable backdrop - use Custom Font Layer Names to get the look you require - use Custom Font Outliner if required to modify the appearance of the custom font. Time taken - 40 minutes!!!

Example output from the above workflow - shine added with Outliner:

And since it is now so ridiculously easy to create new custom fonts - an excuse for a new type of post perhaps?
