FontLab 7
FOR MAC & WINDOWS.
FONTLAB 7
The pro font editor, evolved
You can draw smooth, consistent glyphs, autotrace bitmaps, create overlaps, simplify paths, equalize stems, scale outlines while keeping stroke thickness. You can draw in fractional or integer coordinates, see view numeric and visual measurements, find & fix contour imperfections.
You can space and kern in multi-line tabs or windows that feel like a text editor. You can create, open, extend, test and export font families, variable OpenType fonts, color fonts and web fonts for any Unicode writing system. And you can interchange with other font editing apps, and collaborate with their users.
Ideas into shipping fonts
Designers from all over the world have used the app to create massive variable font families (Grand Gothik by Parachute, Circe Slab by Alexandra Korolkova & Oleksa Volochay / ParaType, Fact by Alexandra Korolkova & Manvel Shmavonyan / ParaType, Bolyar Sans by Jordan Jelev & Vassil Kateliev / Fontmaker), ambitious historical revivals (CAL Bodoni by Dave Lawrence / California Type Foundry), decorative one-offs (Wanchy by Matthijs Herzberg), and color OpenType fonts like the titling font for the Joker movie by Chad Danieley.
Learn the tricks
Many open-source font projects have been made with FontLab. You can use them as inspiration for your own projects, and you can customize them for your own needs.

Work like the pros
FontLab 7 is versatile and battle-proven.
It builds on the rich legacy of our classic apps: FontLab Studio 5 and Fontographer, which were used to create 10,000s professional fonts by designers from foundries large and small:
Adobe, Apple, FontFont, Linotype, Microsoft, Monotype, Canada Type, Porchez, Underware, Tiro Typeworks and many more.
Most fonts that are bundled with Microsoft Windows or with the Apple systems (macOS, iOS) were designed in our apps!
