Our Story

Single Line Fonts website was created in 2019 with an initial rollout of 5 fonts. Since then, I've added designs and fonts and it's grown exponentially. But it all truly started about 20 years ago, when I made some special single line fonts for use in a (now obsolete) software program with Pazzles personal cutting machines.  For years, the only single-line font users out there, in fact, were us Pazzles owners. We were using our pen tools long before ithey were en vogue. I credit those ladies, including Christine, the original Pazzles founder, for spurring within me the passion that later became Single Line Fonts. 

For years afterwards, I searched for a way to make these available to use with other craft cutters, engravers, and similar plotter type machines.  There were a couple of very rudimentary fonts out there, but I was the first to offer true single-line ttf fonts (with no outlines), in conjunction with the opf font format. Later, I developed the FontLab Pad format, which is wildly popular among a wide range of users including systems by Brother, Cricut, Glowforge, Shaper Origin, and many more. Woodworkers, metal engravers, jewelers, as well as artisans in the scrapbooking, cardmaking, and foil quilling crafts are just a few of the many makers who utilize my work. The pride I feel when I see my ideas come to life within your wok is indescribable. That is my ultimate reward for the years of heart and effort that have led to what you see here.

I am thrilled to be able to bring these to you now, and I hope you enjoy them as much as I love making them!  Drop me a note sometime and let me know how the single line font industry has influenced your work and life!

CUTE FONT
Great single line font for my foil quill. So simple to install and use in my silhouette studio software. Perfect font for kids party items!
- Alison

LASERING TUMBLERS
I am very happy with your fonts. I have tried several times to get good hairline fonts but they were just ok. Your single lines are great for me as a laser guy. I am a graphic designer and own an offset print shop. I truly believe that you have “captured the feel" of the pen on paper.
