Hi – can anyone tell me in simple terms how to take the existing resources from Github (ufo or whatever) and make a font from them?
Newbie question I know, but so far I’ve been only amending existing otf files with success, now it’s time to go further
Cheers!
Click the Code button on the project page on GitHub and then click Download ZIP:
This will download the latest version of the project to your Downloads folder. Unzip the downloaded file and you will get a folder with all the files belonging to the project.
The source files are typically located in a folder named sources, src, or similar. Source files end in .glyphs, .glyphspackage, or .ufo. Double-click them in Finder or drag the file onto the Glyphs icon in the Dock to open them.
The next step would be to not just download the Zip file but to use Git to clone the project and use Git to manage the versions of the file.
