FontLab 8.4.2.8950 macOS
FontLab 8 is an integrated font editor for Mac and Windows that helps you create fonts from start to finish, from a simple design to a complex project, and brings a spark of magic into type design.
Turn letters into art
- Express your imagination, prototype and experiment. Draft glyphs with bitmap autotracing and live calligraphic strokes.
- Draw and edit beautiful, smooth, consistent glyphs in fractional or integer precision, with the help of intelligent snapping and live numeric and visual measurements.
- Refine your drawings: create overlaps, simplify paths, equalize stems. Scale while keeping stroke thickness, globally adjust weight and width, find & fix imperfections.
Make words look good
- Build and assemble glyphs from variable components or from self-adjusting segment or corner skins. Add accented glyphs with a simple double-click.
- Space and kern in multi-line tabs or windows that feel like a text editor.
- Add typographic smartness like ligatures, small caps, old-style numerals with automatically-generated OpenType features, and test them in the integrated state-of-the-art complex-script text engine.
Give text a voice
- Explore new directions with color and variation. Extend and complete any font in FontLab, or in mix with other font editors.
- Create, open, extend, test and export font families, variable OpenType fonts, color fonts and web fonts for any Unicode writing system.
- Interchange with other font editing apps like FontForge, RoboFont or Glyphs. Supercharge your workflow with powerful add-ins and Python 3 scripts.
Compatibility: macOS 10.13 or later
