Bold Formal Scripts
We get a lot of requests for fancy scripts. A font with a calÂliÂgraphic touch is often the best option for formal inviÂtaÂtions, wedÂding announceÂments, and phony high school diploÂmas. The probÂlem with these scripts is that most are very light, making them impracÂtiÂcal for use at small sizes or reversed against dark backÂgrounds. Here are some script fonts that add some heft withÂout losing class:
- BalÂlanÂtines Script
- ComÂmerÂcial Script
- ITC EdwarÂdian Script
- GreyÂton Script
- KuenÂstler Script
- URW Polonaise
- Sloop
- Snell Roundhand
