Monica Lewinsky font?!

I don’t know about you, but I was never more relieved when the Monica Lewinsky scandal finally quieted down and no longer made the front pages everywhere. Reading through archives at Lines & Splines, though, her name came up again, but this time in a very different way.

Lines & Splines' writer Andy Crewdson, using handwriting samples of notes from court documents, created a font from Monica Lewinsky’s own handwriting. Since I have great respect for Lines & Splines and admittedly some curiosity, I downloaded his free font creation to have a look for myself.

One of the dilemmas with many handwriting fonts I’ve played with is that the lines (handwriting strokes) are too thin to use on the Web. This one, however, works just fine, as you can see in the sample to the right. I found it to be a highly readable font at a variety of sizes as I experimented in Adobe Photoshop. This handwriting font is available for both PC and Mac, too, directly from the Lines & Splines archive.
