Open Loop Penmanship Letterforms
Cursive School Upright pairs nearly vertical stems with rounded, open loops and an even pen stroke. The H has a rising cross stroke that meets a narrow loop near the top of its right stem. The L curls through a slim upper loop before sweeping into a long, rounded foot, giving repeated letters a gentle baseline rhythm. The R carries a broad bowl and a curved leg with an upturned finish. Capitals sit separately rather than forming a continuous joined line. These restrained flourishes and generous rounded shapes give short wording a calm, personal feel, with enough movement to keep labels from looking rigid.
Test the font in your wording
Check repeated L feet, the H cross stroke, and gaps around rounded capitals in your actual wording. Compare smaller and larger previews for loop clarity. These specimens show Latin capitals; inspect lowercase, accents, and any other script separately with your intended text.
Font pairing roles
Try this face for a short heading or personal label, with a plain sans serif handling instructions and supporting details. Its curled capital feet and rounded bowls provide the expressive role; a companion with simple terminals can keep longer passages visually steady.

Compare the original spacing with a slightly wider setting. The repeated L feet and rounded O shapes give this phrase a flowing rhythm, while the separate capitals leave visible gaps. Check whether added space makes your wording feel pleasantly open or breaks that rhythm.

Same wording · 40pxHELLO WORLD?
Cursive School Upright has nearly even stroke weight, rounded turns, and relatively vertical stems. Its narrow looped L and softly curved W give the shared phrase a relaxed penmanship character suited to personal notes.
HELLO WORLD?
Gala Script shows pronounced thick and thin strokes, stronger slant, and sharper tapered endings. Its sweeping L and pointed W create a more formal calligraphic rhythm, making it a suggestion to try for ceremonial wording.

How this page was made. Cursive School Upright is a FontGenerator library font made with AI; before release its letters were read back one by one by independent automated checks. The design notes were written by AI from the specimen images and checked against them by a second, independent pass; font measurements come from the font file. Preview sizes and spacing are comparison settings.

About
About Cursive School Upright
With an x-height of 63.9% of the cap height, its lowercase stands above the 48.5% median for script fonts, taller than 51 of the 53 other script fonts. Ascenders on b, d, h, k and l rise 13.7% above the capitals, and descenders on g, j, p, q and y drop 39.8% of the cap height below the baseline, shallower than 45 of the 53 other script fonts. It sets wide: an average lowercase letter, spacing included, is 73.6% as wide as the capitals are tall (an average capital, 81.2%), 14.8% more than the median for script fonts, so the same words take a longer line. The o is close to a circle, 1.12 times as wide as it is tall, and M is the widest capital, at 1.28 times the width of H. Round letters overshoot: O rises 2.2% of the cap height above H and dips 1.9% below the baseline.
Ink covers 20.1% of each lowercase letter's box (its advance width by the cap height), lighter than 39 of the 53 other script fonts.
Its 148 characters include 105 Latin letters, plus 43 figures, punctuation marks and symbols; 53 of the Latin letters are accented or special forms beyond A to Z. The word space measures 45.3% of the cap height, and the blank space either side of a lowercase letter takes up 4.3% of its width. The font carries no kerning, so spacing comes from each letter’s own side bearings. The figures have different widths, so columns of numbers set in Cursive School Upright will not line up exactly.
Measured from the version 0.1.0 font file. Comparisons are with the 376 published library fonts measured on November 12, 2026, 54 of them script fonts.
