The Arial and Times New Roman dictatorship is about to end. Personalization has finally come to typefaces. Calligraphr (previously called Myscriptfont) allows you to scan handwritten text and use it in digital documents and designs. The pro version of this tool, developed by the Swiss company Maklabu GmbH, also gives you the option of joining-up letters, just as you can when writing by hand.
