This is a sample of text from the Egyptian Book of the Dead.
The British Museum created this hieroglyphic type font specifically to publish that book.

Before the British Museum created this type font, books on Egyptology were published using hand drawn hieroglyphs.

This is a modern pictographic type font called "Delectables".
(Created by Carol Kemp)

I have a similar project in mind. I need a special type font to publish a book. I want to create a pictographic type font that depicts the letters of the Roman alphabet as recognizable pictures of what they represent.

Here are some examples of what the project entails.

The project would require some one to render something like this:
as something like this: a figure simple enough to be used for a letter of the alphabet yet recognizable as what it is.

The job would require a certain sense of realism: but not cartoons:

Our Roman alphabet is pictographic.

Contrary to the established theories on the subject, our alphabet is not a set of purely phonetic symbols that only represent sounds. The letters of our alphabet are also pictures that have significant pictorial meanings beyond their sounds. The letters of our alphabet are a set of Pagan religious icons derived from the legend of Isis and Osiris(Assur).

Isis resurrected Assur from the dead.

According to the foundation legend of Egypt, Assur(Osiris) was the first king of the first kingdom on earth. A company of evil conspirators murdered Assur. They hacked his body into pieces and scattered his severed parts afar. Isis collected the scattered parts of Assur, put them together, and resurrected Assur from the dead. The parts of Assur that Isis gathered have since found their way into our alphabet. At least 13 of the letters of the Roman alphabet are visible in this segment of the classical Judgment Scene if you know what you're looking for.

In the pictographic alphabet, the Capital letter [A] is a picture of the capstone of Khufu's pyramid. It represents the highest wisdom:

The small letter [a] is a picture of a pregnant woman:

who is squatting in the birth giving position.

In the pictographic alphabet, the capital letter [C] is a picture of a council circle:

Capital letter [C] represents a council circle government of the kind that has ruled the tribes and nations of the world from prehistoric times to the present.

The small letter [c] is a picture of a human ear:

The council speaks; the ear listens.

There are fifty-two letters of the alphabet that need to be rendered into recognizable images of what they represent. In addition to the letters of the alphabet there are a matching set of numbers and an undetermined number of punctuation marks and ligatures that need to be drawn. Some of the figures would be relatively easy to illustrate; some would be more difficult. For instance, the capital letter [C], the council circle, could be quite challenging to render as a recognizable picture. On the other hand, the small letter [c], the ear, should be pretty easy to draw as a recognizable figure. Cartoonists do it all of the time. The prices for the various drawings would have to be somewhat related to their degree of difficulty.
