If you’re used to drawing in Photoshop or Gimp, this won’t be too difficult. In FontForge, you draw letters using curves and modify their shape and position. Luckily, there’s a tutorial to help you get started, along with a detailed FAQ that can teach you a lot about typography. With so many tools and options, it might seem overwhelming to a beginner. Step-by-step tutorials can be found on the official website.Īvailability: Linux, Mac OS X, BSD and Windows.įontForge is a free, open source, complete software solution for creating fonts.
BirdFont can import drawings from Inkscape and Adobe Illustrator, and export finished projects as TTF, EOT and SVG fonts. To create fonts, you can draw on the grid, import SVG icons to make an icon font, or draw letters by hand in another program (or even on paper), then import that image into BirdFont as a background and draw over it, tracing the letter shapes.
