School Cursive

School Cursive is a high quality cursive font in D'Nealian style. It is fully connected and the connections adapt to their surrounding letters as you type.

• With 14 versions of every letter, the font is able to create connections that flow perfectly smoothly from one letter to the next, without discontinuities.
• The connections from the letter b, o, v and w don't "dip deep", but stay close to the midline, just like they do in the main handwriting curricula such as D'Nealian handwriting by Savvas.
• The letters have a consistent slant. Even the e after b/v/o/w has the same slant to the right as the other letters.
• The letters have a constant line thickness and rounded ends. They look exactly like what you would get if you wrote with a modern (round tipped) pen.
• You can enlarge the letters to full page size and they will still look good!
• The font contains all the accented characters and interpunction needed for Spanish and French language.

Some applications do not allow you to use downloaded fonts at all:
