I have designed a laserwriter font that tries to look like (my) handwriting.
which cannot by any standard be called "beautiful", possibly only legible.
I have used it occasionally to give a "personal" touch to some text.

I would like to put this font in the public domain.

There are some problems though:
- What font number should I chose? (I have written to Apple on the net but
  got no reply.)
- The automatically generated bitmap fonts (by fontographer) really need
  some manual cleanup, and I don't have time to do that.
- Where should I send it?
