Handwriting Fonts



We are in the process of creating some in-store signage using calligraphy fonts and thought we would share some handwritten font finds. Those of you who have been working for fonts for years know how remarkably INEXPENSIVE handwritten fonts have become! It used to be $100+ per font, and now - peanuts for the designer fonts. $18-$35 puts a world of high end fonts on the desktop. Not to mention free sites such as: dafont.com and 1001freefonts.com.

Below are a selection of curated On Paper font pics. If you are looking for a handwritten font, try some of these! All fonts below are available for purchase from myfonts.com.
