Best free alternatives to

Jenna Sue

Jenna Sue Design released Jenna Sue in 2011, a casual handwritten script that designer Jenna LeBlanc describes as handmade with care. It took off through free font sites, passing five million downloads on dafont alone, and has since turned up on storefronts, blogs and wedding stationery everywhere. The free version is licensed for demo use only; the extended Jenna Sue Pro and webfont kits are paid. Its charm is a thin, slightly uneven pen line that stays legible while looking like real handwriting. These free typefaces work the same casual handwritten register without the license fee.

Quiet type that does the work
Body type does the heavy lifting. Get it right and the reader never thinks about it; get it wrong and they feel it before they can name what is off.
