Just in time for the holidays. If you still need a gift for your loved one. Get one of these! The object, not the font 😊
Building a #VariableFont from four separate instances (R,I,B,BI) and @typesupply’s Prepolator 2 is 💋

Finally rewrote all three to utilize the drawBot module in a nice UI wrapper using Tal Leming’s vanilla!
Now also supports canonical node shapes (thanks for the suggestion @kai), and some more small things

Perhaps the next logical step would be to package it into an extension…

@ryan
Looks great, congrats on the release!
Super cool to see tools for MM kerning evolving. There’s also KernTool4 (https://github.com/typedev/KernTool4) which tackles similar tasks, different vibe, but nice to see more options growing in this space
GitHub - typedev/KernTool4: KernTool4 is a set of extensions for working with kerning, glyph margins and groups in Robofont4.

New extension on Mechanic: Kernparison
Compare kerning across all sources of your designspace as you kern in MM. Read more here: https://github.com/ryanbugden/Kernparison

Big thanks to @famirafonts for offering up the idea behind this extension and sponsoring its (open) development!

Dutch and Flemish can be challenging languages to use to their full potential, but our fonts aren’t. Here are some easy-to-use stylistic sets, shown in literal translations that spectacularly miss the point of the original proverbs.
Let’s think about the smallest of independent data points in a glyph, the hard work these dapper dots have volunteerd for, and how incredibly plentiful to keep track of. This is the plankton that swims around in the darkest, deepest corners of your designspace. And you know that if you misplace just one single of them, your entire pipeline collapses with angry tracebacks. Be kind to your anchors, see them swim. Use the new Longboard, a free extension for @RoboFont #tools #typedesign #yadaYada

Behold, the second installment of our exploration into ABC-bikes. This time the O and Q.


We could also have infamous Mister Garrison’s IT bike from Southpark. But that one is motorized.

We don't take song requests but we do take requests for custom type. Get in touch!
