fontmake

This library provides a wrapper for several other Python libraries which together compile fonts from various sources (.glyphs, .ufo) into binaries (.otf, .ttf).

Install

sudo python setup.py develop

Run

After installation, fontmake can be run end-to-end as a module:

# outputs master binaries
python -m fontmake MyFont.glyphs

Use -h to see a list of runtime options. -i will output instance binaries, -c will ensure the output is interpolation compatible (for both masters and instances).

You can also use fontmake to run intermediate steps in the build process, via methods of the fontmake.font_project.FontProject class.
