Cursive generator

How the generator writes

Each letter is drawn from one declared, openly licensed cursive typeface, Marck Script (SIL Open Font License 1.1). Real hands join letters in more ways than a typeface can, so use the result as a model to copy, not as a sample of someone's handwriting. Letters the typeface does not have, such as the pre-1918 ѣ, are shown in print rather than replaced with a different letter.

How to use it

Type or paste Russian text into Your text, and the ruled card redraws it in Russian cursive as you type. Copy puts your text on the clipboard. Share image saves the ruled card as a PNG picture, ready to send or print. In a browser, Download SVG saves the letters as a vector file, which prints sharp at any size: trace it, or set it on a card.

To learn the hand rather than copy it, start with all 33 letters of the Russian cursive alphabet, each on its own page, then write them out on the printable practice sheets.
