I have two handwritten letters that capture the personality I want to see on-screen. Your task is to turn those samples into three distinct yet still “natural handwritten” fonts. Think of them as siblings—each one recognizable as my writing but with subtle variations in weight, slant, or texture so I can switch between them in Word documents and printed correspondence without the type looking copied-and-pasted.
The fonts are to be used in a biographical story based on actual letters written by a woman over a 10-year period. The different font styles represent her letters and writing style evolving over that ten-year period.
I’ll supply high-resolution scans of each letter. From there, please:
• Trace or clean the glyphs, keeping the spontaneous quirks that make real handwriting feel alive.
• Build a complete character set—uppercase, lowercase, numbers, punctuation, common symbols, and any typical special characters—so I never hit a missing-glyph box.
• Use Calligraphr, Glyphs, FontForge, or a comparable tool to compile the three font files.
• Deliver each style as OTF and TTF, ready for immediate installation on both Windows and macOS, along with a simple specimen PDF so I can preview every character at a glance.
I’ll test the fonts in Word to be sure kerning, line spacing, and baseline alignment look natural. Once everything feels seamless, the project is done.
