Recent standards and libre software allow anyone to create a font from their own handwriting. That's what I did with Pecita. The software in question was Ubuntu, xsane, Gimp, Inkscape and especially the wonder of wonders, FontForge. To all the creators, thank you!

The raw material of Pecita is a scan of my writing with its flaws and charms. The font is available as OpenType (.OTF) from pecita.eu. It is coded with full Unicode glyphs customary in Latin and pan European languages, the phonetic alphabet, katakana, and many symbols. It includes many ligatures.

Version 2.5 represents the achievement of key objectives: all the Latin characters used nowadays, katakana, all Unicode characters up to 0 × 02AF, ligatures enough for a realistic handwritten record.
