Readme
This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

Using the Jarman Font
Strictly speaking this is not a Font but a simulation of the Christopher
Jarman cursive handwriting as seen in the handwriting scheme for schools,
"The Development of Handwriting Skills" by Christopher Jarman now published by
Stanley Thornes Ltd
Ellenborough House
Wellington St
Cheltenham Glos GL50 1YD
Tel: 01242 28888
The intention is for teachers and pupils to be able to write out their own
copy sheets for handwriting practice using their own words, to supplement
the Scheme.
As an Archimedes based outline font however, it will load into any suitable
program and can be used to produce documents with a hand-written appearance
when required.
If you have any problems or queries please ring me, Chris Jarman on
Winchester ( 01962 ) 862227 I will be pleased to help. I am also available to
run one-day INSET courses on the teaching of handwriting in your school.
