Build master source OpenType/CFF fonts from a .designspace file and UFO master source fonts.

charplot

dtdigiplotdtfontplotdtfontsetplotdthintplotdtwaterfallplot

Aliases for the corresponding options of the proofpdf command.

checkoutlinesufo

Perform outline quality checks. It can also remove path overlaps.

comparefamily

Look in a specific directory, examine and report on all the OpenType fonts found.

type1

dtdetype1

Compile and decompile, respectively, a Type 1 font to and from a plain-text representation.

makeinstancesufo

Generate UFO font instances from a set of master UFO fonts.

makeotfexe

Read all the font data and build the final OpenType font.

makeotf

This command can be used to prepare the input files needed by makeotfexe.

mergefonts

Merge one or more fonts into a parent font.

otc2otf

Extract all OpenType fonts from the parent OpenType Collection font.

otf2otc

Build an OpenType Collection font file from two or more OpenType font files.

Take in a TrueType font and look for a UFO font stored in the same directory. Use the UFO's components data to compose matching TrueType glyphs.

ttfdecomponentizer

Take in a TrueType font and decompose any composite glyphs into simple glyphs.
