This is a Postscript( font created with Fontographer(.

Notepad) is intended to emulate casual handwriting. 
There are several good fonts already available as 
shareware, including Handwriting, Riverside, Lefty, etc. I 
have seen these and they are all different and all good - I 
recemmend them. I felt they were not what I needed and 
decided to create my own handwritten font in order to 
achieve a more realistic handwriting.

The problem with handwritten fonts I have seen thus far 
is that while the lower case "f" may look very naturally 
scrawled, the next lower case "f" will look naturally 
scrawled in EXACTLY THE SAME WAY. When one 
writes by hand, characters all look somewhat the same, 
since everybody has their own distinct handwriting. But 
every character won't look exactly the same every time 
you write it. This is a shortfall that always gives the font 
away.

This font, as it is here, is no different.

I also have available a version which offers an alternate 
character for almost every letter of the alphabet, caps and 
lower case, each number, and most punctuation. There is 
an "n" that looks one way and option-n that looks slightly 
different, etc. For this reason, you will notice that special 
characters, like (, aren't where you'd expect them.  Use 
Key Caps to find the special characters you need. If you'd 
like to order this font with the option characters, send
