A draw-your-own font maker

Turn your handwriting into a font you can type with.

Glyphsmith is a touchscreen glyph editor. Draw each letter, watch it come alive in a live preview, and export the whole alphabet as JSON — no design software required.

Specimen

Aa Bb Cc

The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.

Draw by hand

Sketch each letter with your finger, stylus, or mouse on a metrics-aware canvas built for touch.

True type metrics

Baseline, x-height, and cap guides keep every glyph aligned so your font reads like real type.

Export as JSON

Save your whole alphabet to a portable JSON file and pick up exactly where you left off.

Import & remix

Load a saved font back in, tweak individual glyphs, and re-export in seconds.

Your alphabet is one sketch away.

Open the editor and draw your first glyph — it takes less than a minute.
