About Petit Formal Script
Petit Formal Script is a formal script by Impallari Type, published under the SIL Open Font License. It is partly joined: most lowercase letters connect, a few pairs stand apart. Its x-height is tall at 59 percent of the em, so the lowercase is large and reads clearly at small sizes. Strokes are plain, with swashes that stay within the letter (swash extent 0.14). The stance is a clear right slant at about 12 degrees. It suits wedding stationery, invitations, certificates.
Pairs that do not join: bo, br, vi, wa, sr, gl, yb, ss.
How the letters connect
Using Petit Formal Script
Keep Petit Formal Script at 14 point or larger in print and 18 pixels or larger on screen; below that the letter shapes start to blur. Export SVG for cutting machines and use the Weld option so the joined letters cut as one shape; the pairs that stand apart cut as separate pieces. Use PNG at 300 DPI for print. Before committing, type the pairs bo, br, vi, wa in the generator: these are the ones that do not connect in this face.
