FontStudio: Create & Edit Font
Turn handwriting into fonts
Free · In-App Purchases
Draw your letters with Apple Pencil or scan a printed handwriting sheet, refine every curve, then export a real TTF, OTF or WOFF — all on your device.
Turn your handwriting into a font you can actually use. FontStudio is a complete type design studio for iPhone and iPad: draw every letter, perfect the curves, tune spacing and kerning, then export a real TTF, OTF or WOFF file. Everything is made and stored on your device.
DRAW EVERY LETTER
• Sketch each character with Apple Pencil or your finger on a pressure-sensitive canvas
• Four nib profiles: Pressure, Monoline, Calligraphic with a pen angle dial, and Tapered
• Guides for baseline, x-height, cap height, ascender, and descender, plus an adjustable grid
• Trace or compare against a ghost reference letter shown in any font on your device
• Pencil-only mode lets fingers pan and zoom while only Apple Pencil draws
• Double-tap or squeeze your Apple Pencil to switch between drawing and erasing
• Deep per-letter undo and redo that survives switching characters
PRINT A SHEET, SCAN A WHOLE ALPHABET
• Generate a printable handwriting sheet on A4 or US Letter, ruled with your font's own metrics
• Write your letters in the printed cells, then scan the pages with your camera
• Registration marks align each page automatically, with manual adjustment if one is missed
• Review every cell, exclude the ones you want to redo, and import a full alphabet at once
PERFECT EVERY CURVE WITH VECTOR NODES
• Edit true outlines with anchor points and bezier handles
• Switch nodes between corner and smooth, add or delete points
• Move, scale, and rotate selections with an on-canvas gizmo or lasso select
WEIGHT, SPACING, AND KERNING
• One slider makes the whole font lighter or bolder — your strokes stay intact, and reset is one tap away
• Set left and right side bearings per letter with a live proof of its neighbours
• Kern pairs by dragging letters closer or apart, with suggestions like AV, To, and LT
TEST IT BEFORE YOU SHIP IT
• The type tester compiles your font and renders live text in it
• Type your own sample or use built-in specimens for pangrams, capitals, numerals, punctuation, and kerning
• Adjust size and line height, and preview in light or dark
IMPORT ARTWORK, OR OPEN A FONT YOU ALREADY HAVE
• Bring in PNG or SVG artwork from Photos, Files, the clipboard, or by dragging it onto a letter
• Tune ink detection and smoothing to control how artwork is traced
• Open TTF, OTF, WOFF, and WOFF2 files to edit, straight from Files, AirDrop, or the share sheet
EXPORT REAL FONT FILES
• TrueType (.ttf) — the one file most people need; installs on iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Windows
• OpenType CFF (.otf) — for design applications
• WOFF — for @font-face on your website
• Per-letter SVG files and a printable specimen PDF
• Real kerning tables are compiled into the exported font
• Export checks catch empty letters, unclosed outlines, and name conflicts, then jump you straight to the fix
• Send your font with the share sheet or save it to Files
YOUR FONT LIBRARY
• Every font shows a live specimen drawn from your own letters
• Grid, list, compact, and gallery layouts, favourites, and sorting
• Duplicate a font, or duplicate as a variant to build a family
• Choose your coverage: capitals, lowercase, numerals, punctuation, accented Latin, and your own custom characters
• Set family name, style, PostScript name, version, author, copyright, and license — written into the font itself
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No account, no sign-in, no upload — fonts are compiled entirely on your device
• Optional iCloud sync keeps your library on all your devices and works offline
• Lock the app with Face ID or Touch ID
• Export and import a full backup of your fonts at any time
