In this class you will learn how to design your very own fonts on the iPad.
We will go step by step to show you how you can create a basic font style replicating your own handwriting. I will also give you the basics on how to create more elaborate font designs. You will learn how to perfect each letter so it looks exactly how you want.
I will show you how you can easily create an all caps font, as well as to how to quickly turn your font into a font family, by adding a ‘bold’ and ‘thin’ style.
Lastly you will learn how to export and share or install your font, so you can start using it right away!
You will be able to download 4 fonts that I designed for the class so you can use them as guides or inspiration to create your own. These are available from the ‘Resources’ section (Open in Safari to download).
Besides your iPad you will need to have the apps ‘iFont’ (which is free) and iFont Maker installed. It is most comfortable to use the Apple Pencil but if you don’t have one you can use any other stylus or even your finger.
