Target hundreds of devices on multiple platforms with support for over 15 frameworks out the box.

PerformanceYou can add text to your games in a few different ways.

Many of the frameworks allow you to use a truetype font for your text but this comes at a cost.

You lose a lot of flexibility with styling but most importantly you lose performance.

No one likes a game that takes a long time to load or drops frames at that crucial point.

Using bitmap fonts you can achieve the perfect style and gain a MASSIVE performance increase over alternative methods.

StrokeAdd an outer, centered or inner stroke with a solid color or gradient.

Refine the stoke by changing it’s width, mitre or join.

FillUse a Solid color / Gradient or Image to fill each glyph.

ShadowEasily apply internal and external shadows to any text.

KerningWe’ve always taken legibility seriously, thats why Glyph Designer has fully supported font kerning from day one.

VersionsNeed to recover a previous document? Not a problem, Glyph Designer uses powerful document versions built right into OS X to keep your work safe so you will never lose anything again.

Streamline your workflowIntegrating GDCL into your workflow is a simple process and can save you significant development time, especially when it comes to localizing your games.

It couldn’t be easier! Add a build phase to your project.

Save your Glyph Designer project then build and view your changes.

Perfect renderingNo matter what style your after, we’ve got you covered.

For each glyph we render fills, stroke and shadows to individual layers, only compositing during the final rendering pass.

It couldn’t be simpler.

Super Fast Smart ZoomingHighly optimised zooming allows you to quickly and easily zoom and pan around the pixels.

Manage export profilesTargeting multiple devices? Glyph Designer’s export function has been specifically designed to ease the pain of targeting many different platforms and devices.

Add multiple profiles, set their name and relative size.

Then just hit export and witness the creation of all your game’s assets.

Simple glyph selectionEver wanted to browse a font for those cool looking hidden characters? Glyph Designer lets you effortlessly search and select individual glyphs from an entire font.
