So leaving aside the fact that tools for converting your handwriting into a font already exist. The way the Latin alphabet is typeset is really inimical to this. Arabic is a much better match, because the font shaping engines understand that letters have different forms in different parts of a word, and that the strokes need to align. Maybe you could do this with learning pairs and glyph substitutions, but I doubt many people are going to have the patience
- manibatra 10y agoAuthor here. I agree the tools do exist. Learning about typography ( the technical details ) is very much outside of my comfort zone. Plus I am learning a lot while deploying this as an app. Is there is any book/resource you could point me towards to further my understand? Thanks.
