I tried this but it came out all messed up. Looks nothing like my entered characters.

Ok, understood. I need to use thick/ bold point pen. i used the regular one used for day to day writing.

i used Black Gel pen

Lmao. Never had any tutor in my school life. So, this is the reason for my poor handwriting.

but you can install your hand writing on pc so you don`t have to sign letters etc anymore

Sadly not, as it doesnt 'do' joined up writing that a signature would be. Just save the whole signature as a .PNG to use for letters would work I guess. I am not using my handwriting as once uploaded and installed, it somehow looks WORSE than comic sans

To which size should we resize the same? Can you please explain in detail?

You can also do this with a non rooted phone as well.
Follow all steps up until iFont.
Don't use iFont.
Download HiFont
Download .tff file and paste it into HiFont directory.
Go to My Fonts in HiFont, click scan.
Click your font then follow the on screen instructions to complete

this is good fun but difficult to be used everyday.....my font is really small, it became acceptable in size only selecting 130% in settings but it is changed system-wide (for example, in whatsapp the name of the contacts is still default font, but is huge now), and some characters such as ':' and 'ì' aren't displayed (there is a square at their place)

How to scan it in 600x300dpi using Camscanner?

The directions say to scan at 300-600dpi not 600x300dpi. Just tell Camscanner to scan at anything between 300 to 600 dpi. I personally did 600dpi.

5428x6500 worked for me resizing the image. The website wants the image to be no larger than 6500x6500

Check out my previous post. It has a link to the one I did yesterday.

Thanks for this awesome idea . I first had the problem that I had to write with a different pen and also bigger on the template than I usually do, so it didn't look like my natural writing . Just in case anyone has the same issue: print the template at a smaller size and fill it out (this way you can write smaller and also with a thinner pen ), since the actual size is not that relevant for the scan.

Separate thread for sharing and downloading would be a good idea.

Also, for ****s and giggles I did another one where instead of writing the actual letter in the square I drew small little figures and faces in them and then scanned in and uploaded and it worked. Whatever I drew in the square for a capital A showed up as my drawing. So have fun with this to.
