In recent decades, computer-aided drawing (CAD) software has come into play (typically using AutoCAD), but the approach remains the same.

Note:, which was inspired by Ontario’s license plate font, is also extremely similar to several states’ embossed fonts in this category. Diagonal spine on 2, angled 3, diagonal terminals on 6 and 9.

Wald’s central role here would also explain the reuse or repurposing of embossed tooling or AutoCAD drawings first created for one jurisdiction, but later employed or retooled for another one.

Thus, even in certain instances when an embossed die font is indicated below as coming from Irwin-Hodson or Waldale, Wald would in all likelihood have been the ultimate creator and producer of the font.
