So, I've done a fair bit of commissioned font work for others of various kinds, but whenever I had to give a quote for the work, I've always just thrown some numbers together that seemed reasonable and ran with it. The only thing is, I have a hard time knowing when an amount is too high to suggest. I've collected a handful of articles that talk about this in very general terms, but they all leave out specifics. I realize there are a lot of factors (including reputation), but I'm just curious if anyone would be willing to share any examples of commissioned work they've done and some general details about the work itself (number of glyphs/fonts created, time taken to do it, rough values of earnings, etc.). Anyone willing to share? Or, is there a "union" reference document that freelance typographers can go by? Anything is helpful. Thanks!
