Unless, of course, I am overlooking something. The only thing you can do is to trace the glyph yourself. You can import artwork in Glyphs by going into a glyph box, then glyph/add image, but there is no trace function whatsoever. So… long story short: is it possible to add this function to glyphs? It even lets you name your artwork, say A, B, C, etc, then lets you drop the whole lot onto a new file and the A will go to the A box, the B to the B, etc. Image to Vector Tracing Workflow for Affinity Designer - YouTube One of the things that many users miss inside the current 1. I noticed that FL7 has a live trace option: you can drag and drop your artwork inside a glyph box, go to element/image/autotrace and it will convert the image to a usable vector. Leaves me with Affinity Designer, which is great for the graphics, but doesn’t come with a live trace function.

My usual modus operandi is : I draw a font by hand, photograph it, trace it, or vectorise it using a very old (but very useful) program called ScanFont and create a font.Įver since I have upgraded my OS, I cannot use the standalone Adobe software that I have, because Adobe now works with really expensive monthly subscriptions (which I refuse to pay for). I actually upgraded both, as I am familiar with FL, but I want to like Glyphs.
AUTOTRACE AFFINITY DESIGNER UPGRADE
I have been using Fontlab for millennia now, but when my Macbook told me that my OS was prehistoric, I needed to upgrade FL5 to 7, or upgrade Glyphs.
