What You Will Learn?
- In this tutorial I'll be taking you through the steps of making a font in Adobe Illustrator..
- I'll be using both the programs fontself and fontlab. I find it useful to use both when working but the tutorial is designed so that you can use just one if you need to..
- This class will begin with drawing the font using the line and shape tools, and then going through multi-lingual fonts, kerning, ligatures and weights, as well as exporting..
- By the end you should be able to produce your own sans serif!.
- If however you're still in need of a font, ponte, the font designed in the lessons is available from my creative market shop..
