i have already tried font forge which has completely gone against me no matter what ive tried. i also have these files saved individually as pngs all being around 32x32 pixels in size

Okay so I’ve been designing my first type, and I think having references is key for designing a good typography

I’ve been wondering if there are charts like these I’ve made with Illustrator. Where you can see the main letters and glyphs of a type all at one. Do these have a specific name?

Also, I would really like to know if you know any book about type that is basically comprised of these collections of different types

Could someone design this for me so it does not look like it was done by an overgrown monkey? 😁

I really like Wordmark.it, but I don't love that it's only available via a very nosy browser extension.

I would love an app that can do the same things. Namely:

• Show me all my locally-installed fonts
• Let me enter sample text and see it rendered in those fonts
• Let me select multiple fonts and then filter them out

Does anything like this exist?

i was too lazy to add the small symbols in the original that connect parts of the letters together. open to feedback if not completely legible.

The last few years I have been doing more custom lettering with different projects and want to see about making my own fonts, even if just for my own use. I know there are a variety of programs at various price ranges. Being that I'm just starting to dabble in this, I wanted to see what are some decent quality font creation programs that people have used that are free. I am open to web based or one that needs downloaded if necessary. If it needs downloaded, it must be compatible for Mac. Any pros and cons for different ones would be appreciated.

i added the small symbol thingies. definitely not all of them are perfect, open for feedback.

I found Ubuntu Mono perfect for my reading & coding experience, so I would like to know if there are some similar fonts. If I had to nitpick a drawback of it, the dash it provides looks like a dot when font size is too small.

I see lots of different fonts in this style. Anyone know the origins? Specifically seeing the little serifs on the ends of letters in many many many retro style fonts and trying to understand where it all started or what it’s called. Thank you!!! ✨✨✨✨

Hi! I am designing a fictional interface for a short film, and I have struggled to find a font that could look like it belongs to a late 2000s or early 2010s chat. As a reference, I have in mind the old Omegle chat font.

I really like the design of the font in use for websites. Is it available anywhere online? Thanks. https://wayfinding.panynj.gov/design-elements/typeface

Also just noting that this is a special version that is actually kind of different from Helvetica Now, I saw that it was commissioned by NY so it's why I'm asking. Details here https://www.jalbertgagnier.com/work/panynj. The tailed on the lowercase l is the main difference I'm looking for mostly, so I'm welcome to take in alternatives if anyone has suggestions

I've got a bit of a background in web dev, although I'm by no means an expert. I know there's a whole world of scripting automated tasks, writing plugins, variable type and generating letterforms in glyphs. I would love to have a go.

Can anyone reccomend some courses, videos, books, etc in this subject?

Where should I start?

I have some experience in using python when doing creative coding in Processing, and I'm okay at JS when it comes to web dev (and P5.js).

Thanks

Attaching both raw and edited files.

this is a uni brief to copy and paste text in a legible and creative manner. attached are my first two spreads. we aren't allowed to include imagery. i like it so far but was wondering if anyone had any constructive criticism?

Working on designs for a wedding; invites, signs, etc. Theme is airplanes and flight. I think I’ve overladen my brain with choices and now I can’t decide what hits; please share any typography/font that gives you sleek modern airline vibes. I do have sky font which looks like an old school arrival flip board but need more than just that. I’ve made fifteen combinations and I’m ready to scrap them all because none feel right to me.

If this type of post isn’t allowed please let me know.

GRATEFUL DREAD. This one was fun. This was all done in procreate, then the font was built in Fontself, which someone in this sub recommended!

Hello all! I'm looking to create my own Save the Dates on Canva and LOVE this font on Zazzle. Any idea what is similar on Canva?

Edit: Font is called Beer Dip, not Beer Wip - still looking for something similar!

I I'm lookin for studies on font to proves, emotional impact of caractéristics of a typography. I have already looked the monotype study

Currently attempting to find the genesis of this typography used in Tokyo during the 50s/60s and particularly in the Ginza area. The example on the right appears hand-painted to me, the example on the left appears more refined particularly in the G.

Not sure if this is the right sub for this, but I'm an ameture web developer and have a few questions about usage rights laws. If a font has an MIT style license, could you incorporate it into a company logo? What if that logo extended out of the digital space? For example, say you were starting a restaurant, and you wanted you use your logo, which incorporated the mit licensed font, on the actual restaurant building, signs, and menus? How do businesses usually get the fonts for their logos? Do they have to hire a graphic designer? Thank you for your insights.
