FONT FINISHING
Is your font project collecting dust or facing a tight deadline? No worries, we’ve got your back. Our pro team can bring your font to life or create a whole font family for you.
ACCENTS CHECK/BUILD
Accents are essential, but most fonts skip them or get them wrong. We can fix up your font's diacritics or even design new ones to make them stand out!
METRICS/KERNING
When it comes to metrics and kerning, we handle it all. From fine-tuning the white spaces to speeding up kerning with semi-automatic scripting, we make the process quicker and smoother.
CYRILLIC & GREEK
Is your project going global, expanding beyond Europe? Is there any need for Cyrillic alphabets? Does your client need a Greek extension? We‘re happy to help you with these if you need.
WEBFONTS/HINTING
Webfonts are often in demand, but creating them is no cakewalk. Luckily, we’ve got the skills to help, from solid autohinting to a custom manual touch.
VARIABLE FONTS
Variable fonts, the cool cats of typography, squeezing a whole font family into one neat file. Some browsers and Adobe CC apps are already vibing with them. We're here to get you all set for the next font revolution. Ready to ride the wave?
SCRIPTING
&LECTURES
Got a font with a tricky feature? Let us script it and save you the hassle. Share your challenge, and we’ll craft a custom solution.
And hey, if you're into type stuff, we roll out a bunch of workshops each year, whether it's in schools or rocking it in companies.
