Presents:

A calligraphic typeface based on the “Ladies Hand” Style,performed by several Penman.

Ladies> Hand>"The Ladie's Hand Style is somewhat very similar to ornamental penmanship, although it uses much longer ascenders and descenders and a modest shading. Originally it had less flourishings, which was ideal for writing long letters. Even though its name sug-gests a feminine writing style, it was widely used by most male penman and even Spen-cer reserved the use of the Ladie's style to write to his close friends and relatives, as he considered it a more sincere and heartfelt style.

This present typeface does not restrict to the simplicity of the original Ladies Hand Capitals, and has several OpenType features and flourished capitals which creates a very versatile typeface, while maintaning the elegance of its style.

Masking

In order to use the Additional Lowercase Endings, just type the word + (number under Swashes).

For example “Masking1”. Then select the “1” and mark it as “SWASH” in the OpenType features.

You can also type “<” to create an initial swash for the lowercases and “>” to create an ending swash.
