How to find a font and a character based on a its shape?

[Axel Romishita]

Dear all:

I have constructed three glyphs of my own and wish to find a font and
contained charaters that match my drawing best. The fonts should be
usable in windows in msword.

Shapecatcher would help in principle, but, so far, it is of no help; the
characters seem not to be in the unicode tables.

Are you aware of any tools that would do the job?

Best regards,

Axel.
