Frequently asked questions

What cursive style does this chart use?

This chart uses Prima Cursive reference shapes. Schools and other cursive models may use different capitals, loops, entry strokes or exits. Follow the model used by your teacher when it differs.

How do I find a cursive letter?

Choose a letter in the A–Z index to jump to its uppercase and lowercase pair. Select Enlarge on that pair for a closer look. The writing line is darker; the dashed guide marks the height of a typical short lowercase letter. Compare R/r, S/s and Z/z carefully because cursive forms can differ from familiar print letters.

Does the chart teach cursive stroke order?

No. It shows finished letter shapes, not starting points, numbered strokes or a universal movement sequence. Use it to identify or compare a model. A formation demonstration is needed when you want to learn how a stroke moves.

Is this the same as the 26-page alphabet practice pack?

No. Each chart download is one reference page containing all 26 uppercase and lowercase pairs. The separate Cursive Alphabet Practice Pack has 26 A4 pages, one letter pair per page, with models and blank copy rows for practice.

Can I print the chart without an account?

Yes. Both chart PDFs are free and need no account. Choose the file matching your paper, print in portrait at Actual size or 100%, and check the print preview before printing. The chart has at least 15 mm margins; printer settings can still change the output size.
