affont.org Visit website

Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

Affont turns lettering drawn in Affinity into installable OTF, TTF, or WOFF2 fonts, with tools for spacing, kerning, and glyph editing.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-24 issue.

For: Affinity users drawing their own typefaces
Worth noticing: Smart kerning groups letter pairs by profile; the page also shows a font made with Affont by a community member.

Field notes

The page describes both starting from a generated grid and sending lettering already drawn in Affinity. In the app, users can label glyphs individually or use “All in order,” then adjust outlines, spacing, and kerning; the site says smart spacing uses glyph shape to set side bearings. Its listed character-set options include Vietnamese, Japanese kana, Thai, and symbols.
