Choose lettering for the intended size
A long phrase needs more space than a single initial. Thin connections, enclosed spaces and decorative swashes can become hard to distinguish when the design is small. Preview the wording at several placements and show your artist both the reference and intended dimensions.
Script spacing needs particular care: increasing it may separate letters that were drawn to connect. For a compact, readable starting point, compare the same phrase in Minimal sans and Classic serif before choosing a more decorative style.
Font licenses: Great Vibes, UnifrakturMaguntia, Libre Baskerville and Inter.
Check meaning as carefully as appearance
The preview reproduces what you type, including mistakes. Confirm dates, names, punctuation and translations independently. A font preview cannot establish whether a phrase is correct in another language or how its fine details will heal.
Use this as a conversation starter with your artist. They can redraw the lettering, adjust spacing for your body and develop a final composition. The transparent PNG is a visual reference, not a physical size specification.
