Free Fonts: Handwritten & Doodles
Author: Jan Cavan, Category: Freebies
I’ve always wanted to create my own fonts. After a couple of hours trying to figure out what I wanted my character set to look like, here are the final products! I plan to create more fonts in the future but I hope you guys like this first batch that I have.
The first one I named “My Name is Jan” is actually just my regular handwriting. The second I named “Jan Loves To Doodle” are a couple of doodles that I made. I’ve been getting a lot of positive feedback for my sites “paper and doodles” kind of theme so if you would like to make something of your own that is of a similar theme, these may come in handy. The last font that I am giving away I named “I Wuz Here!” for… errr… no particular reason at all. But I kinda like it.

i have always wanted to create my own set of fonts too! cool.
Very nice font. Good for kids site. :)
Thanks for sharing this font. I am looking forward to use this in future projects. Thanks Jan!!
what tool(s) did you use to create and develop and tune your fonts? ?
they are friendly!
@ian: Thanks! I tried installing Fontographer but unfortunately, I am unable to launch the application due to some error. I just kept browsing the web to see what other alternative applications to use ’til I came across this site. IMO, it’s pretty neat especially if it’s the first time you’ll be creating your own fonts. – http://www.yourfonts.com/
