Make Your Handwriting a Font

Design | For Fun
February 13, 2009

Are you always on the look out for new fonts?  Have you always wanted a font that looked just like your handwriting?  I must admit that I have.  I’ve seen services in the past that will make them for you, but they’ve always been a little more than I wanted to spend.  Sure it’d be fun, but I didn’t need to spent $5 on it.

Well I just stumbled upon YourFonts.com, and they will generate a font of your handwriting for you to download.  The best part is it’s free, they don’t even ask for an email address.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Download their template pdf.
  2. Fill it in with your writing
  3. Scan it and upload it on their site.
  4. Wait a few minutes and they generate the font and give you a download link.
  5. Install and use.

Here’s a sample of the one I created:

Looks just as sloppy as my real handwriting.  If you’ve always wanted that personal, handwritten touch, but were too lazy to actually write this is just what you need.
