True, Burmese typefaces are unnaturally circular. I haven't seen any handwritten Burmese, but I'd imagine I'd look rather more elliptical for a start.

My big problem with scripts is that they all end up looking like the cursive one I did for Ternaru. I'm trying to model my one for Erëtas on the Manchu one - that's just gorgeous, I think. I doubt I have the artistic skill though. K. -- Keith Gaughan <kmgaughan@...> http://homepage.eircom.net/~kmgaughan/ I can decide what I give / But it's not up to me / What I get given -=Bjork=-
