FontKit
From paper to .ttf and .otf

-
QR Master
QR codes with your logo, forever
Creates custom QR codes, with your logo, colors and a frame inviting people to scan, and checks that they scan before you print them. The codes are static: with no service in between, they never expire.

Teaches origami one step at a time. On iPhone Duo the hinge is the fold: close the phone a little and the paper on screen folds with it. On any other iPhone and on iPad you fold with a finger.
