MSDWT Manuscript is a slant print handwriting font for both Macintosh and Windows. It includes the basic upper and lower case alphabet as it's taught in many schools, and a few special characters. While not a "finished" font such as those from the big font houses, it is unique and has proved useful for handwriting and spelling papers for my students.

MSDWT Manuscript was created from an old handwriting packet I've had for years from a school corporation I used to work for in Indianapolis. I scanned it into the computer and used Fontographer 4.1 to autotrace and fine-tune it. It still needs a lot of work. Don't be dismayed by the screen fonts--they're pretty rough! The print version is much, much better.

This font is shareware/charityware. If you keep and use this font, please use the Register program to register it through Kagi Shareware (who handle all my registrations). All registration fees from MSDWT Manuscript are directly forwarded to:
