    This document provides guidelines for writing in inclined single-stroke Gothic lettering style at a 67.5 degree angle from horizontal. It describes how to draw inclined guidelines and how the circles and arcs in vertical letters become ellipses at a 45 degree angle when writing inclined. Letters such as a, m, v, and y should be written symmetrically around the guideline. Inclined lowercase letters follow the same principles as inclined capitals. Engineering guideline paper or customized guidelines can be used to prevent misalignment when writing at an angle.

    INCLINED SINGLE-STROKE GOTHIC

    Inclined letter formation.

    Letterspacing

    Inclination is 67.5 degrees from the horizontal. Inclined guidelines may be drawn with
    the lettering triangle as described, or a line at the proper angle may be laid off with the
    protractor and parallel lines constructed from it. Horizontal guidelines and sequence of
    strokes are the same as for vertical letters. Rules of stability, proportion, and balance are
    similar. The circles and circular arcs used in vertical letters become elliptical in inclined
    letters, their major axes making angles of 45 degrees with the horizontal. Letters such
    as a, m, v, and y should be made symmetrically about a guideline. Inclined lower-
    case letters follow the same principles as inclined capitals.
    Cross Section Paper

    Engineering Guidelines ( 1-3-3 or 2-4-4)

    *If there are no available cross section paper or guidelines you can make your customized
    engineering guidelines.
    Engineering guidelines prevent misalignments, the numbers conveys the thickness of the
    strips (in millimeter) , the black strips are the spaces between paragraphs, strips
    2-4(clear) will be the height of your letters, the body of your lower case letters will be two-
    thirds the height of the upper case letter (strip 4 clear).
