  • Patent number: 4244657
    Abstract: A font of alphabetical letters is disclosed herein which is to be employed for the printing of cursive writing script. The font is characterized by the fact that all of the letters are formed to combine with sets or subsets of individual letters of the font. The combination is by connecting each letter at the front or rear with a ligature in which it is indistinguishable that the letters are separately formed in the font. The method of printing is disclosed by which a letter of the font may be selected to indistinguishably connect in ligature with the preceding and following letters so that the printed cursive script is acceptable in appearance, and equal in form to cursive writing examples that represent the accepted standards of correct penmanship.
