How to create a font from your handwriting
Fontgarlic is an AI font generator that turns a photo of your own letters into a complete, installable font family. Here is exactly how it works, start to finish.
Step 1 - Draw and upload your letters
Write your letters however you like: on paper with any pen, or on a tablet. You only need to draw a set of letters clearly, with visible gaps between them (Fontgarlic works with disconnected lettering, not joined cursive). Then take a photo or screenshot and upload it. That single image is all we need to learn your handwriting style.
Step 2 - AI builds your full character set
Our AI studies the shapes, weight and rhythm of your letters, then draws the entire 113-character set in the same style - every uppercase and lowercase letter, number, punctuation mark and symbol, including the ones you never drew. We then assemble those glyphs into a real font: spacing them, kerning them, and generating a full family of 14 styles from light to bold, with matching italics.
Step 3 - Download and install your font
In a few minutes you get a complete font family to download in the standard formats - .otf, .ttf and .woff2 - ready to install on your computer or use on the web. The font is 100% yours: use it, embed it, share it, and even sell work made with it, with no attribution required.
What can I use it for?
A custom font made from your handwriting is perfect for personal branding, logos, wedding stationery, social posts, digital art, product packaging, or simply making anything you write on a computer look like you wrote it by hand. Because you get a full family with bold and italic styles, it behaves like any professional typeface.
Do I need design skills?
No. You do not need to know anything about type design or vector software. If you can write letters and take a photo, you can make your own font. Fontgarlic handles the drawing, spacing, kerning and file generation automatically.
How much does it cost?
Fontgarlic runs on prepaid credits with no subscription. One font generation costs 4 credits, and you are only charged credits when a font is successfully delivered - failed or incompatible attempts are always free. Credit packs start small, so you can create your first font for a few dollars.
