Создание Вариативных Шрифтов в Glyphs вместе с Райнером Эрихом Шайхельбауэром

8 February

Learn how to:

  • create a variable font from scratch
  • convert an existing Multiple Master setup into a Variable Font
  • prepare outlines for glyph variations
  • trace down and fix errors, avoid potential pitfalls
  • optional settings (custom parameters)
  • useful scripts and plug-ins for the workflow
  • export and test in AI and web browsers
  • animate a glyph in a web browser

You will be taken through a Variable Font workflow, with ample opportunity for questions and feedback. That means that also Multiple Master technology and interpolation in general will be addressed, and the small details that can make a difference.
