Font Required: Lucida Handwriting Bold
Posted by John Cooper on 5 April 2008 at 12:29I have Lucida Handwriting italic but need the bold version (I can add italics manually) but the application I use (embroidery) doesn’t allow me to create a bold font from a non bold TTF!
Cheers
John

Hi John I dont think it exists 😕
Lucida handwriting italic appears to be the only hand written version.
I couldnt find it anywhere on the net

i’ve needed to use it as a bolder font before, so i simply adderd a small contour and welded it together, creating a fatter font.
i seem to have lost handwriting though, had to make do with ff running text lately!

I can probably find another way to create it – just being lazy 🙂

Thanks for the offer Ian.
If you could produce it in a vector format that would be great as I could resize and create stitches.
This is what I need, justified centred

Hi John,
Could you add more compensation to the lettering to make it bolder or would that make it too messy for embroidery?Alex.

I did try that but it started looking a bit ‘loose’.
It’s not desperately important – converting TTF to embroidery lettering can be a bit hit & miss.

Thanks Alex, you like a challenge 🙂 that looks very good and plenty bold enough.
Any format will do but .emb preferred. Perhaps you could email to:
john at stitch-up dot biz
Regards
John
