Font Developer | Custom Fonts & Typography Production

I turn logos, lettering, handwriting, and existing typefaces into clean, production-ready fonts, with clear licensing for commercial use. Top Rated Plus type designer and font developer with 7+ years and 200+ font projects on Upwork. I publish retail fonts under Monocotype Foundry on Creative Market and MyFonts. Logo-to-Font & Custom Typefaces I turn logos, wordmarks, vector art, sketches, and photos of lettering into complete, typeable fonts for branding, packaging, signage, apps, and web. • Custom brand typefaces and logo-to-font conversion • Glyph design, spacing, and kerning • Ligatures, stylistic sets, swashes, and contextual alternates • Variable fonts, webfonts, and extra weights or italics • Wordmark refinement and vector reconstruction Font Edits, Repair & Conversion • Add glyphs, accents, symbols, icons, or alternates to existing fonts • Fix kerning, spacing, naming, metadata, and installation issues on Mac and Windows • Convert legacy and proprietary formats (.fnt, .chr, BX, VFONT, .PLT) to TTF or OTF, keeping original names and appearance • Optimize fonts for web and Shopify with lightweight WOFF/WOFF2 files Multilingual Fonts Arabic, Urdu, Hebrew, Greek, Cyrillic, Chinese (Hanzi), Korean (Hangul), Ethiopic, and extended Latin, including Arabic typeface design, revision, and debugging with proper initial, medial, final, and isolated forms. Handwriting & Script Fonts I turn handwriting, calligraphy, and hand lettering into fonts that feel natural to type. • Handwriting fonts from scans, letters, photos, or Calligraphr exports • Randomized alternates coded in OpenType, so repeated letters never look identical • Connected scripts with smooth joins, swashes, and cleanup of scan artifacts • Tracing and dotted fonts for children’s learning materials and worksheets Fonts for Jewelry, Laser Cutting & Engraving I build fonts for products that get cut, engraved, or stitched, where every letter has to hold together as a physical piece. • Name jewelry fonts with loops and joins that keep a cut-out name in one piece, plus full accent sets for international names • Color OTF-SVG fonts that mark engraving lines where letters overlap, so cutting software can engrave them automatically • Laser and CNC fonts with clean, non-overlapping paths, consistent strokes, and stencil-style cuts that keep each character connected, tested in software like LightBurn • Brand typefaces for jewelry lines, with sleek strokes and custom symbols • Embroidery-ready fonts for machines such as Brother Each font is adjusted for its machine and material, and I revise based on your test cuts until it runs smoothly in production. Single-Line Fonts for Plotters & CNC Single-stroke fonts that pen plotters, engravers, and CNC machines can draw directly, built from handwriting, from scratch, or from an existing font. • Formats: SVG and Hershey, SHX for AutoCAD and LightBurn, OPF, OTF-SVG, and double-stroke TTF • Tested for tools like AxiDraw, Inkscape, LightBurn, and VCarve • Outline preview versions of single-line fonts Licensing & Ownership Every font I create is original work, so you get clear, legal usage rights for commercial projects. Copyright and editable source files can be transferred to you on request. For edits to existing fonts, I first check that the original license allows it, so your project stays protected. Deliverables: OTF, TTF, WOFF/WOFF2, variable fonts, color and SVG fonts, single-line formats, editable sources, and a license or copyright transfer agreement. Send me your logo, lettering, handwriting, existing font, or font problem. I’ll review it and recommend the most efficient way to build it. Not sure where to start? Book a 30-minute consultation.
