Hi, I started to build a couple fonts for myself. After designing

I assume this is this your first font because you're using Illustrator. If that's the case, buy https://www.fontself.com/ and do the font conversion in-app.

If you enjoyed designing all the glyphs and genuinely think you want to do more, look into FontLab Studio or if you're a poorfag, FontForge. Both are very capable, but the latter has a steeper learning curve.

>wtf dude, designing anything in these programs is so weird and hard, why can't i just use Illustrator?
Mathematically it boils down to quadratic beziers vs. cubic beziers. But there's still more into it and Illustrator alone is not enough for Typeface Authoring even if it seems counter-intuitive. There's more to fonts than drawing glyphs.

Thanks for the answers!

>Fontself

Exactly what I was originally searching for! Cute, little plugin, that seems to have everything you need to develop and publish display fonts.

>FontLab Studio
>FontForge

Looks really powerful and very much fun to use. I lean heavily towards FontLab Studio since I'm curious what I can do with scripting.

Pic related. Some old & shitty font, that I started to rework.

It's good, but whatever you're going to author in the future, even if you're from the Anglosphere, please consider doing ö, ä, o, ß, æ etc. for the rest of us. Especially if you're going to make money off your typefaces.

is fontself pirated yet?

>>301434
I haven't found it anywhere.

>>301398
If you like scripting you should go towards Robofont! Way easier to use additionally

>>301434
I haven't found a public torrent, that's why I explicitly said "buy Fontself"
It might be on cgpeers though, but I can't connect to it right now for some reason.

The tracker is down for a couple of days now, but I've searched for it before and nobody has uploaded it yet.
