Highlights

• Intuitive sketching tools: Easily digitize your hand-drawn letterforms and transform them into fully-fledged OpenType fonts
• Specialized vector editing capabilities: Leverage advanced features like interpolated nudging, curvature control, and batch editing to sculpt your typefaces with precision
• Multilingual support: Glyphs' smart component placement, automatic alignment of diacritics, and Unicode 7 support make it an ideal choice for developing fonts for diverse languages
• Contextual editing: The edit view doubles as a text editor, allowing you to design, space, and kern your glyphs in a word context, rather than isolated in windows
• Vibrant color options: Bring your typographical creations to life with the built-in multi-layer preview and specialized editing tools, enabling the export of layer fonts, Microsoft-style color webfonts, or Apple-style emoji fonts
• Automated OpenType features: Glyphs analyzes your glyph names and shapes, and can automatically build feature code for ligatures, figure sets, positional forms, localizations, fractions, stylistic sets, small caps, and more.
