Choosing the Right Handwriting Style

Explore our four distinct handwriting styles and find the perfect match for your message.

Choosing the Right Handwriting Style

One of the most common questions we receive is: "Which handwriting style should I choose?" The answer depends on your message, your audience, and the impression you want to make.

Our Four Handwriting Styles

1. Classic (Script)

A flowing cursive with timeless elegance.

Best for: Personal correspondence, thank you notes, and warm messages to friends and family.

Our Classic Script style mimics traditional cursive handwriting. It has a natural flow that feels personal and heartfelt. Each letter connects smoothly to the next, creating an authentic handwritten appearance.

2. Elegant (Calligraphy)

Refined strokes for special occasions.

Best for: Wedding invitations, formal announcements, holiday cards, and luxury brand communications.

The Elegant style draws inspiration from traditional calligraphy. It features graceful flourishes and varying stroke weights that add a touch of sophistication to any message.

3. Neat (Print)

Clear, modern, and highly readable.

Best for: Business correspondence, informational mailings, and audiences who may prefer easier-to-read text.

Our Neat Print style combines the personal touch of handwriting with maximum legibility. Each letter is distinct and clear, making it perfect for longer messages or professional contexts.

4. Realistic (Human)

Our most authentic handwriting experience.

Best for: High-stakes communications, VIP clients, executive correspondence, and when authenticity matters most.

This is our flagship style—Luba Hand. It's based on real human handwriting with natural pressure variations, slight baseline drift, and authentic imperfections. Under a microscope, you'll see genuine ink absorption into the paper fibers, not printed toner.

How We Achieve Authenticity

Unlike competitors who use laser printers with "handwriting fonts," every Handwrite card is genuinely written with:

  • Real fountain pens (Lamy Safari)
  • Premium archival ink that absorbs into paper fibers
  • 300gsm textured card stock for a tactile feel
  • Micro-variations introduced by our robot plotters to prevent mechanical uniformity

Still Unsure?

If you're not sure which style fits your needs, start with Realistic (Human) for maximum impact, or Neat (Print) for maximum readability. You can also contact our support team for personalized advice.
