Script sample

Getty-Dubay Italic is a modern teaching script for handwriting based on Latin script, developed in 1976 in Portland, Oregon, by Barbara Getty and Inga Dubay[1] with the aim of allowing learners to make an easier transition from print writing to cursive.

Characteristics

Getty-Dubay Italic is designed as a semi-cursive Italic script. Other than strokes to join the letters, only the lower-case letter 'k' and a few upper-case letters have forms different from their printed equivalents. Getty-Dubay Italic is written with a slant of 85 degrees, measured counterclockwise from the baseline.

Prevalence

Publishing

Getty-Dubay Italic books were previously published by Portland State University and are now self-published by the authors and Allport Editions.
