How to sign Roman: tips from its letters

What to do with each part of Roman, from the first capital to the last stroke.

  1. The capital R. Write the stem, the bowl and the leg in one movement, letting the leg kick out along the baseline into the o. A long, sweeping leg is the classic R flourish; a short one looks tidier.

  2. The o in Roman. o closes at the top and leaves from there, so the next letter starts from a high join. Keep the o round and closed, or it reads as a u or a v.

  3. A calm outline. Apart from the capital, every letter of Roman stays between the lines, with nothing rising above or dropping below. That makes a smooth, even signature; give it character with a tall capital R or a long underline.

  4. The final n. Roman ends on an arch. Let the last downstroke trail off to the right; it naturally becomes a quick flourish.

  5. 5 letters. A name of this length can be written in full and still look fast. Keep the letters joined and let them shrink a little towards the end, the way real signatures do.
