3 use cases

  • Add a handwritten theme to a website

    Serve the font and turn on a handwritten theme for headings and prose on any site.

    View prompt
    Using the repo harshpreet931/harshpreet-hand, copy the .woff2 fonts and harshpreet-hand.css from dist/ into <site-folder>/public/fonts/, then apply the handwritten theme to <page-or-layout-file>. Output the changed files and the exact <html> change. Verify by loading the page and confirming the Harshpreet Hand font is requested and applied in the browser developer tools.

  • Install the handwriting font for Figma or Keynote

    Install the TTF files so design and office apps can use the font by name.

    View prompt
    From the release of repo harshpreet931/harshpreet-hand, download HarshpreetHand-Regular.ttf and HarshpreetHand-Bold.ttf and install them on this machine for <app-name>. Output the install location and the font name shown in the app's font menu. Verify that a sample line typed in <app-name> renders in the handwritten face.

  • Rebuild the font and tune its spacing or weight

    Run the pipeline locally, then change spacing or nib weight and rebuild the font.

    View prompt
    In the repo harshpreet931/harshpreet-hand, install potrace and requirements.txt, run pipeline/run_all.sh, then change the Regular pen value in WEIGHTS in pipeline/build_font.py to <new-value> and run pipeline/run_all.sh font. Output the rebuilt file list in dist/ and the new WEIGHTS line. Verify by confirming dist/specimen.html opens and the Regular file timestamp updated.

Quick start with Harshpreet Hand

  1. Check you have what it needs: A web browser, or a computer where you can install .ttf font files; For rebuilding: Python 3, potrace (brew install potrace or apt install potrace), and a terminal; For a site: access to the site's CSS and a folder to host font files.
  2. Open harshpreet931/harshpreet-hand on GitHub and read the README and license.
  3. Download the repo or the dist/ folder, then copy dist/HarshpreetHand-Regular.woff2 (and optionally -Bold.woff2) into your site, e.g. public/fonts/.
  4. Copy dist/harshpreet-hand.css next to the fonts, or paste its @font-face rules into your global CSS, and fix the url() paths if needed.
  5. Turn the theme on with document.documentElement.dataset.theme = "handwritten".
  6. Set line-height to 1.5 or more so the g and y loops do not clip, as the README advises.

These steps come from our top use case, Add a handwritten theme to a website, which also has a copy-paste agent prompt.
