Felt Tip Roman specimen from Mark Simonson

Mark Simonson's own handwriting, hand-digitised rather than auto-traced, and one of his most popular releases.

About

Felt Tip Roman was Simonson's first font release, a careful hand-digitisation of his own handwriting from 1989, well before handwriting fonts became common. Bold and Heavy weights were added later to give it a fuller range for display and casual text use.

Classification

A digitised facsimile of personal handwriting, placed in script since it reproduces a continuous handwritten letterform rather than a constructed text face.
