This fills me with nostalgia. When our kids came back from six months in
primary school in France they wrote like this, and it took them years to
unlearn it again :-)

But, I'm sure they still miss the smell of the ink and the nice blue
spots the pen holder made on their fingers ;)

Kind regards

Hi Sophie,
It would be very interesting for education to have this kind of font.

From a Danish perspective, we can't use it, because the font doesn't 
support the special characters (æ ø and å) that we use in our language.


From my point of view, it should not be shipped with OOo because its 
only for use in education. Those who need it should install it separately.

Is this type of font (used at school) of use for your language?
What would you need to be able to use it in your language?
Do you think their is an interest to have it delivered with OOo?

Thanks in advance
Kind regards
Sophie

This could be useful for Italian. Regarding special characters, if it is
OK for French it's OK for Italian too.

Yes, I would like it to be included. At least the version without lines
can be used outside an educationl context: we are not currently shipping
a script-like font and this would be a nice addition, as well as some
artistic fonts if some can be found and included.

Yours,
  Andrea.
