INSPECT AND COMPARE • Type Inspector: Enlarge text without limits and study letterforms at an extraordinary scale. • Glyph Browser: Browse the characters supported by an installed font and inspect real measurements including x-height, cap height, ascender, descender, advance, and glyph width. • Side by Side: Compare the same character or specimen in two fonts with direct positioning and optional guides. • Overlay: Place two typefaces over one another, adjust their position and opacity, and discover subtle structural differences. PRACTICE BY DOING • Trace: Trace large letterforms using Apple Pencil or touch. Choose a font, adjust the guide, zoom the canvas, and draw with the PencilKit tool palette. • Typesetting: Transform raw copy into a readable page step by step—reveal structure, build hierarchy, set the measure, shape paragraphs, and tune the rhythm. • Kerning Practice: Adjust letter pairs by eye, reveal the reference spacing, and train your sense of balance with guided exercises. WORK WITH YOUR FONTS Choose from system fonts and fonts installed on your device using the native iOS font picker. Compare downloaded typefaces from font-management apps, local files, and supported font libraries. Typography Insight is fully optimized for both iPhone and iPad, with responsive layouts, light and dark appearance support, and no account required. See type differently.
