(x) Handwritten fonts with alternates? - various {gang}

andyclymer4 Nov 2003

I'm looking for a good handwritten font with alternate versions of characters for a project that I'm currently working on. I've read through the discussion of favorite handwritten fonts from back in August, but I think I'm looking for something a little more specific.

What I'm looking for is something that possibly has the feel of Ingrid Font but with the functionality and alternates that Caflisch Script Pro has. But, most specifically, I'd take any handwritten font as long as it has some good alternate characters.

Can anyone help? Thanks!

Tiffany --

Good call, I havent seen Handsome yet. The only thing is that I'd love to use a typeface that has a couple versions of each character (or at least the caps) in each weight to keep it looking more natural and less repetitive.

Thanks for the suggestion though

Studio Script?

Or LHF Stanford Script has alternates. Looks like
the alts are lc only. See the Character Map.

Go to Fontshop.com they have a whole section of their catalog devoted to handwritten fonts. Dan

Hmm. Have you looked at Shinntype's Handsome?

One of the more elaborate alternate-flexible handwritten
fonts: FF Schulshrift. From FontFont's description:
