10–11 May 2016: Glyphs at Typo Labs 2016

Both Georg Seifert and Rainer Erich Scheichelbauer will be presenting and conducting workshops in the two-day Typo Labs 2016 on 10 and 11 May 2016. We will present the all-new version 2.3 of Glyphs, so don’t miss this chance to be one of the first to get your hands on the latest and greatest features of Glyphs.

We will show the new API (big thanks to Yanone!) in a half-day, hands-on classroom and in a two-hour, run-down workshop. Or, get the executive summary of the latest feature additions in the presentation on the second day.

Aaaaand… we are giving away one ticket! Tweet a screenshot of your Macro Window addressed to @glyphsapp with hashtag #typolabs. Astonish us, the most creative entry wins! We will pick a winner on 6 April, midnight CET. Good luck!
