Affont: The app to make fonts with Affinity
In this tutorial, I’ll show you step by step how to create your own typeface in Affinity using Affont, the app for creating fonts directly in Affinity, almost like a native feature.
We’ll cover how to install Affont, generate a glyph template, draw your letters with Affinity’s vector tools, adjust kerning and spacing, and export your font as an OTF, TTF, or WOFF2 file, ready to install, use, and share.
