A cursive font is a typeface that imitates the look of handwriting, with characters joined together in a flowing, looped style. Cursive fonts are often used for decorative purposes, such as invitations, certificates, and other formal documents, as well as in logos and other branding materials. Some common examples of cursive fonts include Brush Script, Lucida Handwriting, and Monotype Corsiva. These fonts can be either serif or sans-serif, and can vary in thickness, slant, and other design features.
