Software Description:
With FontLab VI, you can create, open, modify,draw, space, kern, hint and export desktop, web, color and variablefonts. The app is an all-around font editor, but also supports datainterchange with other font creation tools, making it easy tointegrate into your existing workflows.
We’ve put our all into FontLab VI. We talked to type designers fromall over the world and watched them work. We kept what’s best fromour classic apps, FontLab Studio and Fontographer, including manyfamiliar keyboard FontLab shortcuts. But we’ve reconsidered andstreamlined every function.
We’ve also come up with some new, ultra bold ideas. FontLab VIbrings groundbreaking new drawing tools and responsive contouroperations to make your design process easier and more efficient,whether you’re an expert or a beginner.
FontLab now supports color and variability, so you can explorethese new possibilities and expand your creative reach. We’veintegrated industry-standard software components and codifiedestablished best practices into the app, to help make your fontstechnically top-notch.

FontLab VI Summary:
Drawing & Importing
– Draw outline-based glyphs using the Brush, Pencil, Rapid, Pen,Ellipse, and Rectangle tools, in a fractional coordinate space withlive rounding into integer coordinates.
– Use upright and slanted grids, flexible guidelines, snappingsuggestions and live measurement tools for consistent and precisevector drawing.
– Paste and import vector artwork, scanned character sets or colorbitmap glyphs, and turn them into monochrome fonts via customizableautotracing, and into color fonts.
– Draw calligraphic letterforms using a live, adjustable PowerBrushtool, assign and expand strokes.
Editing
– Natively edit cubic PostScript Bézier curves and quadraticTrueType curves, including overlapping open paths, using theContour, Knife, Scissors and Fill tools. Convert between the curvetypes with adjustable precision.
– Find and fix outline problems with FontAudit. Automatically cleanup and optimize outline drawings, balance segments and modify curvetension, harmonize G2 curvature, create and remove overlappingpaths, apply non-destructive ink traps and rounded corners.
– Automatically change weight, create contour versions, applyeffects to outline and bitmap glyphs.
Composites
– Blend, interpolate and extrapolate fonts, create intermediateweights and styles, build extensive font families and variableOpenType fonts with intermediate font and glyph masters, andautomatic masters matching for point-compatible outlines.
Variation
– Blend, interpolate and extrapolate fonts, create intermediateweights and styles, build extensive font families and variableOpenType fonts with intermediate font and glyph masters, andautomatic masters matching for point-compatible outlines.
Spacing & Kerning
– Space entire phrases and kern according to planned pair lists.Apply tracking, modify widths, sidebearings and kerning globally orfor selected glyphs.
– Automatically or manually link metrics between glyphs usingcomplex expressions.
– Kern between classes and glyphs in a UFO- and OpenType-compatibleway, with exceptions.
– Automatically build kerning classes.
– Automatically calculate metrics and kerning, or use autokerningsuggestions as you kern manually.
Fonts
– Create, open, edit and export monochrome outline fonts withsingle masters (desktop and web) and multiple masters (variable),color fonts (with multi-layer editable glyphs, SVG glyphs or bitmapglyphs).
– Compare fonts, merge and split font glyph sets and variations.Modify fonts, glyphs, metrics, kerning and technical fontinformation. Convert between font formats, improve screenappearance with automatic and manual hinting. Exchange font sourcewith other font creation apps.
Technology
