Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this calligraphy class:

Building a font file that works isn’t always as easy as choosing 
“Generate Font” from the File menu, in this course students will take more than just a peek under the hood of how a font works and will learn to use tools and techniques that can take the edge off of font production and testing.

Over the course of eight weeks, topics will range from writing and testing OpenType features, using the RoboFab toolkit to build simple tools to automate repetitive tasks, getting naming and other font info tables set up the right way, and clearing up common bugs and error messages that inevitably come up during font production. The classes will be taught in the RoboFont editing environment.

Required Materials
  • A laptop with font editor and type design installed
School Notes:
Registration fee is charged only once per semester.
