Font engineering is the process of making sure all the bits of information inside a digital font file are correct and where they should be.

A font is not done until it is done. After the design process, mastering —or font engineering—comes in to ensure every glyph, kerning pair, and bit of data is correctly encoded and functions exactly as expected.

We work with industry-standard quality assurance tools and have the expertise to deliver fully compliant fonts with any special behavior for any media and environment.

We provide technical assistance and thoroughly tested production workflows to speed up, assist, or fully automate font mastering and engineering tasks. Our well-oiled processes and adherence to industry-standard best practices ensure high-quality results every time.

Whether you’re a graphic designer wanting to turn a typeface concept into a retail-ready family, or a type designer who prefers to focus on creative aspects, we’ve got your back. You can be as involved as you want, from full integration with your existing tools to letting us handle specific tasks like hinting, kerning, OpenType programming, quality assurance or even the whole engineering process.

Our team is dedicated to help you work better and faster, integrating seamlessly with your creative process or taking over the dirty work to ensure perfect fonts every time.

We’re here for you if:

You’ve drawn a beautiful font, but are intimidated by terms like “fontbakery”, “fontmake” or “opentype programming.

You do know what all that stuff is, but don’t want to be bothered with it all.

You’re comfortable with most things, but would like to make certain processes more enjoyable.
