OTFoundry 3.0

Type 1 to Open Type Font Converter

Our program does much more than a simple conversion from one format to another. It allows you to combine a set of Type 1 fonts belonging to the same typeface family (a basic font plus additional ones containing typographical symbols, oldstyle figures, small and swash capitals, and other supplementary forms as available) into a fully functional, typographically rich Open Type font. All possible accented letters are created during the process automatically, placing the accents in the typographically correct position over the base letters. Read more...

Free Utilities

We have also developed some small but useful utilities we would be happy to offer to you as free downloads.

Monitor Calibration

This handy utility allows you to test, diagnose and calibrate your DTP monitor (or monitors, if you have more than one attached to your system), either of the traditional CRT type or the more fashionable TFT/LCD variant. Note that it is not a color profile generator, just a program that makes it possible to set the adjustment controls of the monitor into their optimal position. Or, you can just as well use it to check out the healthiness of your own monitor or a second hand one you're going to buy. Read more...

Temporary installation of fonts

An interesting side effect of the font preview window on Windows XP and earlier was that while the preview window was open, you could use the font in any other application (including DTP ones). This was a nice solution for those cases where you quickly needed to create some ad or client work requiring a specific font but you didn't want to install it permanently. However, this side effect of the preview window was removed in Windows 7. We wrote a small and simple utility to reproduce its behavior. Read more...

Notebook Battery Status

Instead of the standard icon in the Windows system tray that you have to hover over with the mouse to get some percentage indication, our display stays constantly on the screen and provides an immediate indication of the battery status. In addition, instead of using digits, it features a pleasing analog display, yet it delivers much more accurate results and predictions than the operating system's own battery life estimates.
