What You Can Type With Amsterdam Signature

How to Use the Alternate Letters in Amsterdam Signature

Its 25 alternates are stored as separate characters, so you can copy them from Character Map on Windows or Font Book on a Mac and paste them anywhere, including Cricut Design Space and Canva. Its ligatures switch on by themselves in most design apps: certain letter pairs join into one specially drawn shape.

Where Amsterdam Signature Works Best

Think of Amsterdam Signature for greeting cards, journal pages and friendly social posts. Set it a bit larger than you would a normal text font. Handwriting styles lose their charm once they get too small to read comfortably.
