Forum participation is only open to registered ATypI attendees. The Independent Font Technology Forum provides an opportunity for focused presentations on, and discussion of, major technology issues and developments affecting the type industry. The event in Leipzig will focus on OpenType font technology, with particular emphasis on tools for making OT fonts and understanding system and application support issues. The programme will include demonstrations of current OpenType Layout feature tools from Microsoft and Adobe, and the first public demonstration of an OT enabled version of FontLab. There will be plenty of opportunity to ask questions of tool and technology developers, and the day will conclude with a panel discussion on OT support issues and their impact on font development. A full Forum programme will be available later in August.
