define decorative lettering scrip lettering
Script lettering is another word for a cursive or handwriting font. Decorative is a more generic name for lettering that is designed more for it's fancy, elaborate or whimisical qualities, instead of for its readability. Letters that are compressed very tightly, or that have particularly curvy, distorted or busy serifs or other elements are considered decorative. The fonts you see on old circus posters, or on signs you see printed on the buildings in old Western films are decorative. Old English or other Gothic forms are decorative because they are meant to convey a feeling before they are meant to be read. Other fonts that are NOT decorative are deliberately designed for easy reading, either as large headlines, (Helvetica, Ariel, etc.) or in paragraphs of a lot of text. (Times, Garamond, Bookman, etc.)
