I read somewhere that our oldstyle typefaces are based on Italian handwriting.
My ego would not rest until I wondered what they might look like based on my handwriting.

Accardi is a sort of ‘script gone print’ face.
This is a rough draft version: All the regular Latin letters are in place, and some punctuation, but there is not the full Windows character set, and the spacing and outlines are not very ‘clean’. The final draft, if it ever gets made, will fix these problems, but the font is useful as is.

Share and enjoy.

Would it be possible to upload a bigger version? I did check the ttf file and although I don't like the wide /w, in general this looks very nice, particularly at small sizes.

Thank you! Could you please, tell me more about the relationship between this style and the old Italian writings?

Great idea- combining a classic look with a handwriting font.
