Pisanka is a digital typeface that reflects the handwritten letters taught in Slovene primary schools. Originally developed at the request of a group of teachers, it was designed to provide a standardized and digitalized version of the educational handwriting style used in classrooms once known as penmanship.

The typeface supports both the Slovene and English characters, as well as figures and essential punctuation. To replicate the fluidity of natural handwriting, Pisanka includes numerous alternative forms of letters that allow for smooth and authentic connections between characters. These variants cover initial, medial, and final forms, as well as isolated letter shapes. Pisanka serves as a valuable resource for teachers, parents and children interested in learn and presere the knolwedge of panmanship.

!Pisanka features contextual alternates and works seamlessly in software that supports open features such as Adobe and Canva.

Informacije v slovenščini:

Pisanka je digitalna pisava, ki odraža forme pisanih črk. Nastala je na pobudo skupine učiteljev in je bila zasnovana z namenom, da zagotovi standardizirano in digitalizirano različico pisave, ki se uči danes. Font podpira tako slovenske kot angleške znake, poleg tega pa vključuje tudi števke in ločila. Da bi čim bolje posnemala pisanje, Pisanka vsebuje številne alternativne oblike črk, nekatere črke imajo tudi 10 različnih form, ki omogočajo gladke in pristne povezave med znaki. Te različice zajemajo začetne, sredinske in končne forme, pa tudi samostojne oblike črk.
Priporočamo uporabo fonta v programih, ki podpirajo funkcijo “contextual alternates”: Adobe, Canva, Figma. Načeloma deluje tudi v Wordu, vendar raje priporočamo druge programe.
