A while ago Lee Brimelow, Adobe's chief product designer, gave us a quick preview of one of Adobe's upcoming projects, codenamed Faces, which in theory will allow users to users create and design their own fonts.
Για πολλά χρόνια, η τέχνη της τυπογραφίας περιοριζόταν σε λίγους που ήταν πρόθυμοι να διαθέσουν το χρόνο και την προσπάθεια για να μάθουν τεχνικές στοιχειοθεσίας, δυσνόητα προγράμματα, και να τα συνδυάσουν όλα αυτά με σύγχρονα λογισμικά όπως το Adobe Illustrator ή το FONTLAB Studio.
The project Faces Adobe aims to simplify all of these and thereby enable each user to design their own fonts. For how easy it can be, just watch the video below and see that everything is adjusted with some horizontal bars.
The technology behind Project Faces dates back to Adobe's efforts in 1998, when it bought a small app for Windows 98 which he called her Ares Font Chameleon and which, just like Project Faces, allowed users to, to some extent, change the properties of a fonts with a few control buttons.
At present, Project Face has not been released outside of Adobe's offices, but as shown by the video, the app is working seamlessly on iOS.
