daisychics Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I like the way the New American Cursive looks but I also want to try the HWT (because I've had this planned since ds was in kinder :glare:). Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daisychics Posted February 12, 2009 Author Share Posted February 12, 2009 Yes it has both :D ETA- I just played with it and while it has NAC it doesn't automatically connect the letters. I don't know if I need to change a setting or if this is just how it is. I have never had this issue with the HWT font. The Palmer cursive has the same issue but the others (standard, simple, modern and italic cursives) don't. Strange! Yay! That settles it then.... onward! :tongue_smilie: Thank you, I hope you figure it out and let me know :D, I'm not ordering yet, trying to add up to $150 for free shipping.

You might want to call Rainbow Resource and find out for sure if it has NAC. Mine doesn't (I ordered about a month before NAC came out). I have to pay $20 for an upgrade to get the font from NAC's website. You can order StartWrite from NAC's website and get a complete StartWrite cd that includes NAC and other fonts, but I don't know that this is the standard cd sold by StartWrite with NAC included. On StartWrite's website it says nothing about having NAC included. Anyway, the point of the ramblings is that you might want to call places to make sure you're getting the fonts you want :001_smile:.

myfatherslily Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 It has a font that IS the HWT font? That would be cool.... Okay, now I'm seriously considering this! It would save me tons of money over the years, teaching my three kids how to write (and hopefully we'll have more kids too). I had planned to use HWT for print, then something else for cursive.

jenberly Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 (edited) UPDATE: Don't make the same mistake I did. If you want New American Cursive, order it from their website http://www.newamericancursive.com/ and not from StartWrite, because they don't have the font. According to StartWrite's email to me, Memoria Press "purchased the right to use StartWrite with their font" but StartWrite can't sell it. =( NOw I have to try and "return" StartWrite so I can buy the NAC. ----------------------------- ORIGINAL POST: I'm trying to contact the company regarding New American Cursive; it is apparently not on the program I just downloaded yesterday. Hopefully will find out soon :) since this is why I purchased StartWrite in download form. j.
