About Edu NSW ACT Cursive

Edu NSW ACT Cursive is a handwriting typeface from the AU School Handwriting Fonts, a set of families made to match Australian education standards. This member shows the letterforms taught in New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory. The specimen shows a slanted, single-line hand: lowercase letters link through exit strokes at the baseline, f and z drop below the line, and the capitals are plain, unjoined shapes. The font is variable along one axis, weight, from 400 to 700, with named instances at Regular, Medium, SemiBold and Bold. There is no separate italic, since the hand itself slopes. Its 747 glyphs cover the Latin and Latin Extended subsets. Tina Anderson and Corey Anderson are the listed designers; the name table also credits Eben Sorkin and Mirko Velimirovic, with Sorkin Type Co. as manufacturer. The license is the SIL Open Font License 1.1.
