Description
This version includes upper and lowercase letters, punctuation, and many international characters. I also included some UA Type dingbats (just to amuse myself, and so you don't get those annoying boxes when you type something that isn't in the font).

I was bored with my job. I was making way too many copies - about 7000 at one time. So I drew out some stuff. After my girlfriend saw what I was making, she told me it looked like the letters were dancing. I could kinda see it, so I called it Alpha Dance, which is short for Alphabet Dancing (because I thought it sounded cooler).
