Your Own Handwriting Font- $9

sounds like it would be handy for signing and faxing legal documents without having to print them out, sign them, and either scanning them or using a real fax machine.
 
are there any printers out there that can write/draw? otherwise the handwriting font will look fake when used along with an ink/toner printer. is it a plotter (never used one myself) what I'm looking for?

yes there are plotters that will 'draw'. i know HP makes one.
 
I don't want anyone to have access to my handwriting. What do these guys do with "your" font once it has been created? Do you receive the one, and only, copy of it?

True. That's why I wouldn't do it. Well, besides the obvious that has already been pointed out, nobody could read it in it's native font. I'd say it'd be a good 'encryption' scheme except you just need to CTRL-A and pick a new font to get around that. Not that it wouldn't stop anyone who wanted to from obtaining some of my handwriting and doing this themselves.

I do suppose you could tell this apart from actual handwriting because all the letters would be identical, whereas when I'm writing an a in one word may look different from an a in another.

I don't use my handwriting font to do my signature so you wouldn't be able to fake it that way.

I guess it'd be pretty safe, still, one less thing I'd want out on the net so I wouldn't do this even if it were (still) free.
 
There is a free Windows Power Tool / Toy that lets you do this exact same thing with a Tablet PC, but the tablet cost more than $7.
