Say, “hello,” to an all new tool that will get you started on designing your own fonts!
With more than twenty different parameters, you can start prototyping your next awesome font using the Prototypo font generator.
Once you’re finished with your design, export and start using it.
Here’s a closer look:
Prototypo – The Font Generator
First you can start-out by exploring and play with more than 20 sliders to create, distort and invent new type. Then, you can modify and edit each and every glyph with serifs, proportions and more. Finally, you can compare your font in a word or paragraph, and then export your design in an editable font format.
Turn up your speakers and watch it this really cool font generator in action:

With your help, Prototypo will be an open source, online app—but they need your help!

Wow – that’s a pretty slick tool. Is the generated font cross-platform compliant / web-ready? When you’re done creating a font, do they give you a URL to reference the font in your website (similar to Google Web Fonts)? Or do they just provide a download of the font file(s)?

We’ll just have to wait and see. 🙂
