SCHOOL WRITING

How to use

The basics

• Type one word, name, or short sentence per line in the Text pane on the left.
• Each line becomes a writing row in the worksheet: the typed text on top, then blank practice rows for the student.
• An empty line gives you a row of just blank practice lines.

Fonts

Print Clearly	Manuscript (print) handwriting. Regular for examples, Bold for emphasis, Dashed for tracing.
Print Clearly Ruled	Same letters with the writing rules baked into each glyph. Use “None” for Rule lines.
Andika	SIL literacy font with handwriting-style letterforms (single-story a / g).
Learning Curve	Cursive (joined-up) handwriting. Regular, Bold, or Dashed.
Learning Curve Starts	Cursive with stroke-direction marks so students see where each letter begins.

Rule lines

• Three-line — classic primary-school rules: top line, dashed midline (x-height), solid baseline.
• Baseline only — one solid line per row.
• None — no rules drawn (use with Ruled fonts or for free-form pages).

Tips

• Use the Letter size slider to adjust the height of writing rows.
• Use Practice rows to set how many blank rows follow each example line (0–5).
• If your content runs past one page, lower the letter size or split it across multiple prints.
• Click Print and choose “Save as PDF” for a printable file.
