Frequently Asked Questions
You’ve got questions. We’ve got answers.
Absolutely. Prototypo fonts are under CC-0 license: you own the font that you have created and you can copy, modify, distribute and perform the work, even for commercial purposes, all without asking our permission.
You can export as many fonts as you want with the full version.
We think Prototypo is an awesome tool for students to learn the basics of type design, so we definitely want to let the students access Prototypo easily. That’s why we provide huge discounts for groups and sponsoring offers to individual students who wants to get their hand on a 50% discount. Contact us!
Prototypo does not work that way. We code letter templates with functions and algorithms. But we want to give you an easy way to code your own templates and increase the possibilities of Prototypo.

We have a Youtube channel where we broadcast some tutorials about Prototypo and what you can do with it. We are also working on a Prototypo Academy to show you how to use the app without limits and create powerful visual identities.
Prototypo supports the Latin Extended 3 glyph set which will let you create fonts for Occidental purposes. In a not so distant future, we will extend it to another languages like the Cyrillic, Greek, Arabic, etc.
We think that a web-app is the best fit for our users needs: there is no complex installation, updates are instantaneous, your fonts collection is synchronized on all your computers and you benefit of the great advantages that the web offer. That’s why we are not planning to release a standalone application for the moment.
Of course. With the individualization feature, you can make specific adjustments on each letters or groups of letters. See: Edit > Individualize parameters. You can also make manual adjustments by using the manual editing tool (white arrow in the glyph view).
Prototypo uses modern technologies to render fonts in the browser. To run the app, you will need an up to date version of Chrome, Firefox or Opera. Safari will soon be supported.
Prototypo use parametric templates and we don’t have at the moment such cursive font templates.
