Features
The toolbar in Fontographer is an easy to use graphical-style floating window which has some powerful tools within it. Creating your very first font is as simple as double clicking the character you wish to edit (whether it be a capital letter, a lowercase letter or a special symbol from the ASCII character set) and creating the character your design requires. Since the toolbar is so flexible and graphically oriented creating anything to take the place of a keystroke is simple. Symbols, foreign characters, logos can be easily input instead of the traditional english character.
Kerning
Fontographer provides excellent kerning abilities (the amount of space between characters in a font) for that extra touch to your font. You can manually alter any of the kerning widths, or use the Auto-Kerning option provided to let Fontographer do it all for you.
