The other day, our group was faced with a serious problem - for missing pairs, we had to submit handwritten essays. For two passes - 1 abstract of 15 sheets! Yes, I haven’t messed up that much paper all semester, thank the eggs. Therefore, we had to resort to tricks, namely: find normal ones (Cyrillic) and put them into Microsoft Word, and print out our abstracts.
Here is a selection of 80 Russian handwritten fonts. In the archive you will find the following (and other) copies:
Make your own Russian handwritten font
But after downloading these fonts, it became clear that no one would believe that we write like Pushkin, Boyarsky or Mozart. So we had to make the handwritten font ourselves. But how can you make your own font exactly like your regular handwriting?
First, install Font Creator 6.
Next, on a blank sheet of paper (lined or squared will not work) we write all the letters of the Russian (English, and others if necessary) alphabet, as well as numbers and special letters. symbols.
Let's scan the resulting creation. Next, we cut the scanned image into separate letters and numbers (Photoshop or plain paint will do), and name it accordingly.
Next step in Font Creator:
- Click file - new (New)
- We give a name to our handwritten font (for example Moy_shrift), put a check mark on Unicode, on Regular and on Don’t include outlines (for a blank silhouette form), in short, everything is by default.
- A panel with silhouettes of punctuation marks and English letters appears in front of you. You need to insert Cyrillic alphabet into it. We proceed as follows:
1. Click Insert in the top line, select Characters, YES.
2. A table of symbols of the first font in your database appears in front of you. Then we flip through the pages of the table with the Block→ button.
3. Find Russian letters.
5. Look at the index of the first letter A (I have $0410) in the Selected Character field.
6. Look at the index of the letter I (I have $044F)
7. In the Add these character... field, enter these numbers (like $0410-$044F).
8. Click Ok.
9. Your template has been updated with the corresponding Cyrillic silhouettes.
10. You can also separately insert the characters you are interested in (Ё, ё, etc.)
Now click on the silhouette of the letter you want to create with the right mouse button.
Then select Import image.
In the Import image section, you click on the Load button.
In the next window, you open the folder in which you saved the written letters and symbols.
An image of this letter will appear in the window; click on the Generate button.
So your letter appeared.
Double-click on the square with your letter (the square in which the silhouette of this letter used to be).
A lined window opens in front of you. Don't be scared by the large number of red dotted stripes, they will all come in handy.
For convenience, expand the window to full screen.
If your letter is too large or small, then delete the one already loaded, load a new one and, without clicking generate, click on the Glyph tab. Here we select the appropriate multiplier (this is done at random) and click “use as default”.
Next, let's look at the two main lines (this is in the lined window) - left and right - they determine how the letters of your handwritten font will touch each other. If you want the letters to touch (as in a manuscript), move the right line over the letter (so that it extends slightly beyond the line).
The lowest line (Win Descent) is the maximum limit for letters with a tail (ts, u, shch, z, r, d). If necessary, you can omit it:
The second line from the bottom (Baseline) is the support line of each letter. If your letters stand differently on this line, then accordingly everything will dance in Word.
The third line from the bottom (x-Height) is the maximum height of small letters.
The fourth (CapHeight) is the maximum height of large letters, numbers, as well as the letter “c”, and for some it may be “d” and “b”.
And the fifth line from the bottom is the edge line of the top line. (in my opinion =)
When composing and writing any text, it is necessary to pay attention to its design, namely fonts. Don't forget that the main purpose of any text is to convey your idea to the audience, but appearance also helps and contributes to this.
I would like to give you 15 examples of handwritten fonts that have become quite widespread; today you can download them completely free of charge. They are usually used to create invitations, certificates and add special elegance and sophistication to any text.

All fonts presented to your attention are Cyrillic and can be downloaded completely free of charge. However, commercial use of fonts requires you to negotiate copyrights or purchase a license to use your chosen font for commercial purposes.
Installing fonts
And a little more about installing fonts. The process is extremely simple and allows you to use these fonts in MS Word, Photoshop and others.
Most fonts are provided as a file in .otf or .ttf format, other formats can be used, but this is extremely rare. After the font has been downloaded, you must also add it to the operating system fonts directory, which can be accessed using the path “%SystemRoot%\Fonts”.
So, in order to install the font you like on Windows 7 or a later version of this operating system, you must follow the instructions:
- Download the required font;
- Open the downloaded file;
- In the window that appears, click on the “Install” button.
Once the installation is complete, you can open your editor programs and start working, the fonts will already be available in them. Unfortunately, Google Docs does not allow you to work with fonts other than those from Google Fonts .
How to install multiple fonts at once on Windows 10?
It is worth saying that installation in later versions of Windows is no different and is just as easy. But let’s take the more current version of Windows 10 today. To install several fonts at once, you need to download them and unzip them into one folder. In the second step, we simply select several fonts needed for installation and click the “Install” button.

Did you like the site? Did you find the lessons useful? You can support the project simply by downloading and installing the Flashlight application for Android. The application was written by the author of the site and hopes to publish his own applications in the future. The flashlight controls the phone's camera flash LED and also turns on the screen backlight at full brightness.
Advantages: flexible settings. You can set in the settings so that the flashlight turns on immediately when you start the application and the timer automatically turns on when the application starts. Settings allows you to disable screen lock and flashlight lock with the phone's power button. You can also set the timer yourself.
If the application gains popularity, this will give the author an incentive to create new applications taking into account the wishes of site visitors.
Thanks in advance, Dmitry.

Hello to all readers of the blog site!
I want to tell you and show you with a specific example how to make handwritten text on a computer using the Microsoft Word text editor.
You will also learn how to print this text on a printer in the format of a notebook sheet in a box.
As always, I’m showing MS 2016 so that especially owners of 2003-2007 versions of the editor will find no big inconsistencies in my description, so I recommend purchasing a modern Microsoft Office product package because it’s really better!
Before you begin practical actions, you need to download handwritten fonts for Word, which work with both Cyrillic and Latin, which cannot be said about standard ones.
On the Internet you can find a lot of offers to download various fonts. But I will save you from searching on the World Wide Web, saving you time and protecting you from viruses that can be easily downloaded instead of the desired file, especially out of ignorance.
I advise you to read one of my popular articles. By this direct link On my Yandex disk you can download handwritten fonts for Word for free and subsequently use them to create postcards, illustrations, presentations, etc.
Installing fonts
1. Method for modern OS.
After you have downloaded the Zip archive “fonts.zip”, unpack it into a folder specially created in advance for this purpose.
Please note that in the archive, in addition to fonts with the “ttf” extension, there are files with the “png” extension; these are pictures that show what each font looks like. To view, simply double-click on the file.
Call the RMB context menu, click Install (if you are working with, then enter the administrator password as required).
Installation.
That's all, after rebooting the computer, you can start writing, but first let's look at the algorithm of the second method, designed specifically for “retrogrades” who do not use modern OS.
2. Method
Select the fonts using the method described above and copy them;
We follow the path: C:\Windows\Fonts;
Using hot Ctrl+V, paste it into the Fonts folder.
Don't forget to restart your PC.
Let's create a notebook sheet in a cage
1. Open Word, in the View tab, select the page orientation Page Layout.
2. Open the Layout tab and select the Size tool.
3. In the window that opens, select Other paper sizes...
4. In the Paper Options menu, Paper Size item, create a notebook sheet with real dimensions. The dimensions of the notebook sheet are 16.5x20.5 cm, but when printed on a printer it turns out smaller than what is needed, at least for me, so increase it a little to 19.5x22.5 cm.
5. The Margins item will help you set the margin parameters, where Top and Bottom should be 0.5 cm each. Left 2.5, and Right 0.8 cm. Confirm the intentionality of your actions with the OK button.
6. Now all that remains is to enable the Grid by adjusting its dimensions. To do this, in the Layout tab, go to the Align tool and check the Show Grid box. then immediately open the Grid Options.
7. In the parameters you just need to set the size of the cells, which is known to be equal to 0.5 cm.
At this point, it seemed that all the actions were completed, but as it turned out, there was a problem when printing the document, the cells disappeared, only the text remained on a blank sheet of paper.
See how I managed to cope with this task.
Insert – Shapes – Lines.
We take a straight line and methodically trace each line on our notebook paper, first horizontally, then vertically, or vice versa. It took me 5 minutes to do it once, and then we use it constantly.
This is what the final result will be (choose fonts at your discretion from the downloaded archive).
If anyone has a problem with drawing lines, then I took this case into account by putting together with the fonts a template of a ready-made notebook sheet, just insert the text and print it out.
You can use this method to create an essay, so as not to write it manually if your teachers require this from you, of course, it is unlikely that you will be able to complete them.
By the way, these fonts will work in other editors, for example, Paint, Photoshop or others.
Important: When pasting copied text into a template, use the hotkey Ctrl+V to prevent the text from moving out of the margins.
Perhaps there is an easier way to solve this problem, but I have not found it. If anyone knows other options, write about them in the comments, I will be very grateful.
