Glyphs are an important part of any font, and being able to copy and paste them between fonts can be a useful tool for designers. Here’s how to do it:

Copy Glyphs

To copy selected glyphs, select **Edit > Copy**. This action will copy not only the glyph outline, but also the glyph information, such as its name, Unicode codepoint, metrics, etc. The copied glyphs will be placed in the Clipboard and can be pasted into the same font or into another font.

Paste Glyphs

To paste glyphs, select **Edit > Paste**. This will paste the glyphs from the Clipboard into the font. Depending on the font editor, you may be able to paste the glyphs into the same font or into another font.
