As much as handwriting fonts suck, can you, um, link to any decent ones?

Thanks for the tip on the Arial piece; I passed it along to a few other designer friends.

Heh, you would ask that of me, wouldn’t you? :) Yeah, that’s quite an impressive site… I stumbled across it a while ago (as is to be expected), and was pleased with how meticulous the font design was.

I love that Scourge of Arial article. Of course, this is coming from someone who wondered, when he used his first Windows 3.1 machine, why Helvetica wasn’t available from the font menu and why they used such an ugly non-clone instead…

Thanks for the “why arial sucks” I never knew the true details of its history… Im now officially a nerd for caring about such things :)

another low-cost alternative is Your Handwriting 2, from Data Becker. it’s no longer made, but I found a new-in-the-box copy at my local used bookstore for $7, and a friend picked up a couple copies from eBay for under $10 each.
