!Fonts/Jarman/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

1 July 1995


 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: 0242 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.


The Jarman Font also accompanies the program "Abc Calligrapher" obtainable from:
   Design Concept

 This font may be freely copied and used in schools for educational purposes, provided that this  Readme section is also always copied to accompany the font
