I usually make my own fonts for my comix, and I made LJRomanHand specifically to give a Roman theme to projects and comix that needed it. It is based on examples of Roman ink handwriting on papyrus and wood over several centuries, however the letters have purposely been made to look more recognisable for ease of use. To create variety and give a more realistic ‘handwritten’ sense, a set of upper-case letters is also included for mixing in with the lower-case letters (the Romans did not really use upper and lower case when writing). There are also a set of numbers and punctuation points included for full functionality.
