Speaker Erwin Denissen

In 1997, Erwin Denissen developed a font editor for Windows as a graduate project at Fontys University Eindhoven, The Netherlands. Over the years, he continued to improve the software, now known as FontCreator, while also working as a software engineer at Capgemini. In 2004, Denissen resigned from his daytime job to entirely focus on his own company. Due to an intuitive user interface and its superior tools for editing and proofing OpenType layout features, FontCreator has become one of the most popular font editors known today. Denissen lives and works in Bilthoven and usually tries to avoid conferences.
