Automatic Bold in Fontlab 4

fredriksjolander

Hello, im using Fontlab 4.6 and i have just built my own font.

Im thinking about making a bold version of the type and transforming the glyphs one by one seems like a very ineffective way to do it. I think I have read somewhere that there should be some kind of "auto-transform-glyphs command"?

Thank you, Fredrik

in the font window, select all glyphs, apple-transform and that will apply the transformation to all that is selected. be sure to make a back-up copy of the original!
