And this is why cursive was developed. You go from raising the pen off the surface at least once for every character to once a word plus for some specific characters. Looks to me like around half (maybe more) of the time spent is in the air not writing. (Excluding line changes) That means it could write at near twice the speed, theoretically. Of course, cursive is way harder because you need to have transitions between characters which would mean you would have to have variants though that could be cool to have variants for printed text as well. I love projects like this.

You might not have to define variants for cursive depending on the previous or next character, because you can probably get away with just dragging the pen to the next letter. Maybe because I am not old enough, I find cursive very hard to read. But I think you are right about the speed. Variants on printed letters is something I had thought about too because having identical instances is a telltale sign of fake handwriting. With variants, it could be very hard to tell it wasn't written by a person.

@@jamiekawabata7101 True. Variants might only be limited to a few characters. I'm pretty sure everyone finds cursive more difficult to read. Legibility isn't its strong suit. That said, at some level this can actually be a good thing as something that is more difficult to read is something someone is more likely to think about. You could also make it much harder to tell by varying character heights, widths, empty spaces and the starting point of each line. That would probably be much easier to do and give you a significantly better result too.

Next step translate from audio. Pretty simple actually.
