The photofont file format specification is publicly available. It is based on open standards such as XML and PNG. You can create and edit photofonts using our professional bitmap font editor BitFonter for Mac OS X and Windows.

  • After installation, you will see a new Photofont tool at the bottom of your InDesign toolbar. Use that tool to create a newphotofont frame, choose a photofont and the font size, type some text, choose the text alignment and click on OK.
  • The photofont frames remain editable: double-click on any existing photofont frame to change its contents, choose a new photofont or change the size.
  • The photofont frames will automatically rewrap the text when resized.
  • Use InDesign's View / Display Performance setting to control the display quality of the photofonts on your screen.
  • When printed or exported to PDF, InDesign will automatically use the highest possible quality (resolution) of the photofont.
