Products

FontCreator

The company's flagship product is FontCreator (formerly known as Font Creator Program) for Microsoft Windows. Fonts are created using multiple vector drawing aids from free-hand drawing of individual glyphs to importing vector (PDF, EPS, SVG) or bitmap graphics.

Highlights of Recent Versions

The latest version, FontCreator 14, was released in June 2021, which was last updated in August 2021.[2]

MainType

On December 2, 2005 High-Logic released MainType, a font-management program for Windows, which has also been constantly updated and improved. Tools are provided for installing, uninstalling, loading (temporarily installing a font until your computer is turned off) and unloading fonts to the Windows Font Folder. In addition to providing a visual representation of each glyph and detailed information about each font AND rapid access to huge font collections, they can be easily arranged into user designed groups for seasonal or whatever categories a user can imagine. Even registry repair is included in the package.

A free version is available for non-commercial use, with fewer features, and the font library limited to 2,500 fonts.

The latest version, MainType 11, was released in May 2021, and was last updated a few days later.[3]

Scanahand

On April 23, 2008 High-Logic released Scanahand, a font generator for Windows that allows the user to print out a form, manually fill in the glyphs, scan it into the program and generate new fonts. The most recent version, Scanahand 7.0, was released in January 2020 and last updated in July 2020.[4]

YourFonts

YourFonts is a small part of High-Logic, operated by Guido, Jasper and Floris Denissen.
