Worksheet Crafter User Manual
Worksheet Crafter comes with a set of fonts specifically for teaching, some of them create exclusively for Worksheet Crafter and some of them kindly provided by the authors of the fonts. When you open the drop down menu for selecting a font you will see all school fonts listed in a separate section in the drop down menu:
Note: Our custom fonts do not support the American division sign. To use that one, choose one of the standard fonts such as Arial instead.
These fonts are only available within Worksheet Crafter and not installed system wide.
The asset library provides numerous additional fonts. Look for the category "Schriften".
Included Handwriting Fonts
WsC Schreibschrift LA2
Lateinische Ausgangsschrift.
WsC Schreibschrift VA
Vereinfachte Ausgangsschrift.
WsC Schreibschrift Oe95
Östereichische Schulschrift 95.
Die österreichische Schulschrift 1995 bietet für die Großbuchstaben "Z", "F" und "H" sowie für das kleine "r" jeweils zwei Varianten an. Unsere Oe95-Schrift verwendet standardmäßig die am häufigsten genutzten Varianten dieser Buchstaben. Über einen kleinen Trick kannst du jedoch auch die Alternativ-Formen nutzen:
Stelle hierzu das Rautenzeichen (#) vor den jeweiligen Buchstaben, beispielsweise:
WsC Schreibschrift SAS2
Schulausgangsschrift.
WsC Swiss
Schweizer Schulschrift.
Coping Text with Handwriting or Special Fonts to Word
Unfortunately Microsoft Word doesn't support complex fonts such as our handwriting fonts. Due to this Worksheet Crafter has to fall back to pixel-based graphics when copying items to Word, in case these items use handwriting fonts. You may thus see a corresponding warning during copy operations.

Worksheet Crafter Special Fonts
WsC Druckschrift Radierer
The characters in this font are partially erased, making it more difficult for the students to read the text:
WsC Geheimschrift 1
In "secrent font" the characters are replaced with vertical lines, where the position and height of the lines matches the original characters. Dots and T-bars are indicates in the letters to make it a bit easier for the students:
"Spiegelschrift" mirrors each letter horizontally. By combining it with the language exercise "Text backwards" you may mirror the whole text so it has to be read backwards.
