Daniel Font

Daniel Midgley publishes Daniel as a handwritten family. His author note permits personal and commercial use and invites examples of work made with the font. Use the creator’s distribution and accompanying terms when selecting resources rather than treating similarly named downloads as interchangeable.

Read the publisher’s family page for the source account and the edition currently offered. Keep a family name distinct from its particular release, width or optical branch.

The author’s listing supplies regular, bold and black files. These provide different strengths of handwriting within one family. Compare actual letters and punctuation before assuming another font named Daniel is the same design.

Use the original publisher specimen to inspect those features. An alternative can share a broad role without having the same letter shapes, metrics or character coverage.

Try a short handwritten message alongside a clear printed caption. Choose a heavier style only after checking the interior spaces at the final size. Leave sufficient line spacing for tall strokes and descenders, especially on a narrow card.

For independent comparisons, try Kalam and Patrick Hand. Use the same wording and approximate output size. The related style guide provides broader design context.

Use Daniel Midgley to try the original and investigate the files, styles and terms for your intended workflow. This site does not distribute or serve Daniel font software.

The editable alternatives here have their own source profiles and included licenses. For the difference between a font file and copied characters, read Unicode text versus fonts.
