- [Instructor] Many of the concepts in this course are explained through show and tell. You're welcome to follow along using the same files that I used. They're included in the Exercise Folder and are organized according to chapter. Throughout this course, I'll be demonstrating with a series of quickly constructed Glyphs files, a sketchy sans serif font that's made from the same parts that I use at the outset to explain type anatomy. They're all open source which means, pretty much, what you think it does, but you should still take some time to read through the SIL Open Font License. Now that you've decided to learn about designing types with Glyphs app, I imagine that you have or will quickly develop a deep respect for the amount of work and thought that goes into making fonts. And it should follow that you know that font piracy is wrong. While some licenses, like the Open Source License in the exercise file, allow for reuse and alteration. Most do not. You might be tempted to borrow here and there from the work of others, but copying data and, or outlines from copyrighted material is plagiarism and it's illegal. If the threat of paying a big chunk of money isn't enough to dissuade you from pirating, then I hope respect for your fellow designers is. Be good, make good things, and respect others.
