About Glyphr Studio — Free Font Editor

Glyphr Studio is a free, open-source (GPL-3.0) font editor built for typeface design beginners and hobbyists. Draw individual glyphs on a vector canvas, build up component parts you can reuse across letters, adjust kerning between character pairs, and export your work as a real, usable font file. The build here is self-hosted directly from the glyphr-studio/Glyphr-Studio-2 project's own source and runs entirely client-side: nothing you design is ever uploaded to any server by this site.

How to use

  1. Start a new project from scratch, or load/restore an existing one, from the landing screen.
  2. Draw and edit glyph shapes on the vector canvas — add points, curves, and reusable components.
  3. Fine-tune kerning between character pairs, then export your typeface as a font file.

Frequently asked questions

Is my font project uploaded anywhere?
No. Drawing, editing, and font generation all happen entirely in your browser — nothing you design is sent to a server by this site.
Is Glyphr Studio free to use?
Yes — it is free and open source, licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL-3.0), so it stays free to use, study, and modify.
Can I export a real font file?
Yes — projects can be exported as a working font file you can install and use like any other typeface.
