Linked Willow uses recorded normalized letter bodies with disclosed smoothing,
traversal changes, baseline placement and generated connectors. Punctuation is
separately designed geometry; missing characters are marked.
Drawn cursive is a newly designed analytic interpretation informed by Willow,
with contextual letter curves and generic manually drawn capitals, numbers and
punctuation. It is not unchanged recorded handwriting or neural synthesis.

Both paths were modified for digital rendering. Original authors do not endorse
this output. No outside font or restricted research model was imported.
Sample-shaped cursive additionally measures recorded or user-provided a/m/o/l/y/t
letters. Curated samples from UJI Version 2 and ISGL are supplied unchanged;
individual writer/sample provenance and full attributions are retained in the
font project source metadata and bundled glyphfont/library project files.

Optional observed-form fitting adapts compatible a/o bowl contours, m arch heights
and t crossbars; other letter structures remain inherited.
Measurements shape the existing designed topology; no identity reconstruction
or newly trained model is claimed. User-provided handwriting and available pressure/time/tool metadata persist
privately in the native Android font project. The script studio reads a
read-only snapshot of observed XY captures, not neural-generated glyphs.
No rights transfer is requested for user handwriting; it leaves this app only
when the user chooses an export or share destination.
Keep these credits with PNG output; source credits are embedded in SVG exports.
The existing font-maker functions and 32 supplied styles are retained.
The five supplied contextual script TTFs have fixed settings and can be saved
or shared separately. Personal script compositions use the analytic renderer
and export as SVG/PNG, not personalized script TTF.
Personal script starts at 85% sample proportion influence; optional observed
shape fitting starts at 0%. Fitting covers compatible a/o/m/t details; l/y
retain the inherited designed forms. Captured pressure is stored but is not
fitted; script ink width is uniform.
