First time using Glyphr Studio? Have some stuff designed in Illustrator or Inkscape? This is a must-read to get you started quickly!





Features galore.

A big bucket of design tools you know you need. (And, some you never expected)

  • Editing Tools - Pen and Pointer tools for all your vector design needs. Cool stuff like lockable attributes, guidelines, keyboard shortcuts, undo history... and more!
  • Components - Define a shape once, like an 'o', and re-use it across many glyphs, like 'bdgpq'. Make changes to the Root Component, and it updates all the glyphs linked to it.
  • Test Drive - Try out your font as you type. Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs!
  • Ligatures - Combine a sequence of glyphs into one new supercharacter, like Æ or ¼. POW.
  • Kerning - Standard character spacing feeling awkward like a gradeschool slowdance? Kerning gets glyphs together and feelin' good.
  • Import SVG Fonts or outlines - Use your favorite vector editing program to create vector outlines, then import them to glyphs via SVG. Or open a whole SVG Font at once.
  • Unicode-a-palooza - Easily select some common Unicode character ranges to design, or input arbitrary ranges - up to U+FFFF. That's 65k glyphs of excitement.
  • Two Screen Mode - spread out and use your big beautiful second monitor. Tools on one screen, editing on the other.

Tip Jar.

Glyphr Studio is free, and will always be free.
But strong philosophical ideals don't put food on the table.

A monetary contribution, even a small one, will go a long way to keep the Glyphr Studio effort going strong. Thank you!
