Gregg Shorthand

[aerion]

I know this will sound really crazy. But I'm looking to communicate on the web using my Gregg shorthand. I know there are lots of us out there who know Gregg shorthand. I can't think of anyother way of doing it but in an art studio using a pencil; then copying and sending. But maybe there's a site where all can be done. Know of one?

I'm curious - what is the form of writing you are talking about? Do you have pics?

You could use a special font for Gregg Shorthand.
Unfortunately doing a quick search on Google and AllTheWeb I didn't find much...

The problem with using a font though, is it would require visitors to that site to also have that font installed.

It's symbols that make words or parts of words. It was popular back in the 60's if you were going to be a secretary.

I have not forgotten any of it. Would love to use it with other people who know it very well. Just for the challenge and secrecy.

I also don't think it can be done. Still, I guess if I had a art site and used a pencil and paper, maybe I could do it. Then email it. Sounds like alot of work

thats pretty sweet.

it would be impossible for a gregg font because of the symbol's different vertical placement in different words

Hey butch,
Thanks for finding that site. I could use a brushup course.
I also need a site where I can write using a pointer on the screen. It would be like signing my signature to the bottom of a letter. Then I could actually write in shorthand.
Any ideas?
