Glyphs 4: The Leading Mac Font Editor for Designers

I introduce Glyphs 4, the premier font editor for Mac that empowers designers to draw quickly and manage projects efficiently. This update brings powerful new features like pen points for flexible strokes, COLRv1 support for advanced color fonts, and visual kerning groups. With an intuitive interface and robust scripting capabilities, I help creators produce everything from variable fonts to complex icon systems with confidence.

After using Glyphs, the pen tool in Illustrator feels like carving a chicken with a chainsaw.

    I think every professional type designer I know uses this software.

    I have trouble coming up with any other example of total domination of a market segment. Maybe Photoshop in its glory days, or Quark Xpress before that, but even in those cases, there were alternatives in (minor) use.

    Still no new Glyphs Mini, though. :(
