Every designer has a typeface in them. The Glyphs app is a friendly yet
powerful program that will help unlock that inner visual voice. This
course helps you make your own fonts using the Glyphs app, starting with
an introduction to the parts of letters (type anatomy) and the parts of a
font (the character set). Charles Nix leads a tour of the Glyphs workspace
and then coaches you through the construction of a complete fontΓÇöfrom
outline to stroke, stroke to character, characters to typeface. There are
special sections dedicated to spacing, kerning, optional OpenType
features, and font testing and export. Charles also shows how to create
type families with multiple masters. The conclusion includes resources for
further learning about typography and typeface design.
Topics include:
* Measuring type
* Classifying type
* Using the Glyphs app tools, windows, layers, palettes, and menus
* Working with Glyphs app scripts
* Drawing letterforms and characters

* Creating punctuation and reference marks
