Cursive fonts
Script fonts is a designation for a font class according to DIN 16518 . Script fonts belong to the decorative fonts.
Over the years, typescripts that simulate the character of a cursive , mostly a Latin cursive , were created over and over again . Despite the efforts, the letters have so far been very regular. The variation of the letter shapes that a cursive script inevitably brings with it was difficult to implement. In addition, the shapes had to be carefully revised so as not to interrupt the writing line at the letter entrances and exits. What used to be tedious has now been made much easier thanks to OpenType technology through automatic variation and shape adjustment during use. However, this requires more effort in the design and preparation of the fonts.
Well-known representatives are the Brush Script, Zapfino , FF Hands, Mistral and Künstler Script.
