Script: Type That Looks Handwritten
A script typeface mimics handwriting or calligraphy, often with flowing strokes and connected letterforms.
Scripts can add personality, elegance, and a human feel. They also risk poor readability, especially at small sizes or in all caps. Use scripts for short text, strong contrast, and clear hierarchy.
Example: A bakery might use a script in the logo or a headline, then use a clean sans-serif for menus, prices, and addresses to keep everything readable.
