#138 — Font patiching

There are a number of free and cheap services that will turn your
handwriting into a font. See
http://mindprod.com/jgloss/handwritingfont.html

The catch is none of them handle the left/right single/double quote.

Is there a technique or cheap tool to let you patch in the missing
characters from some other font.  Granted they would look a little
off, but at least they would be there. 

The other possibility I thought of was to draw the quote characters as
my way of doing Icelandic characters (which I would never use) and
submit my odd handwriting sample.  But then I would need a way of
modifying the font vector to move the glyphs to  the correct spot.  Is
there a free technique or cheap tool for that?
