MoFont - Turn your handwriting into a real OTF/TTF font

MoFont turns your handwriting into a real, installable font — OTF + TTF — covering 6,500 common Chinese characters. Print an A4 grid, write 30–50 characters, photograph and upload, and ~3–4 hours later download your font. It's buy-once: ~$9 personal, no subscription, no watermark. Under the hood: a generation pipeline (GAN to diffusion) plus heavy FontForge work for the last mile — thousands of glyphs into a font that actually opens and renders, rare characters included.
