Tall thin handwritten capitals
Simple Planner is a tall thin handwritten face in white on a dark photograph: narrow capitals with gentle wobble, uneven heights, a high waist on the E and a rounded S, so the phrase reads as pen lettering written on a planner page rather than as a drawn display.

Visual anatomy & craft review
The two words sit on one line and the drawing is handwriting at a small scale scaled up: the strokes are even and light, the verticals wobble slightly, and the letters keep their proportions rather than stretching, which is what makes the pair look written. Heights drift by a millimetre or two and the spacing opens and closes, so the line reads as hand lettering even at poster size. Because the stroke is thin, the face needs a large size and a clean ground, and the specimen places the words across a laptop photograph where the dark surface gives maximum contrast. The two captions are small tracked romans above and below, which keeps the page reading as a sample rather than a poster.

Concrete hierarchy, scale and production guidance tailored to Simple Planner’s stroke geometry.
A tall handwritten face reads as a personal notebook rather than a corporate product, and the light stroke reproduces on uncoated paper where a heavy display would look printed.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Set the title at 40 pt on an A5 cover, the volume in a 9 pt roman, and the year at 8 pt caps. Keep 18 mm margins and print one ink on a cream stock so the thin strokes read as pen work.
Pre-production check
Check the 40 pt title on uncoated stock, where a light stroke can look grey; keep the ink solid or raise the weight. Confirm the 9 pt volume reads at arm's length and that the wobble does not look like a printing fault.
A handwritten face makes a study planner feel like a personal notebook, and the tall narrow letters fit long subject names into a narrow printed column.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print A5 sticker sheets: each subject at 14 pt, the week number in a 7 pt roman, and 5 mm between labels. Keep the labels to one colour on a white stock so a home printer holds the thin strokes.
Pre-production check
Check the 14 pt subjects on a home printer, where a thin stroke can break; keep the size above 12 pt. Confirm the 7 pt week numbers read at arm's length and that the labels peel without tearing.
A handwritten face sets a workshop tone that is personal rather than institutional, and the tall letterforms keep a long title readable on a small card.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
A6 card: the title at 24 pt, the details in a 9 pt roman, and the date at 8 pt caps. Keep 12 mm margins and print one colour on a cream card so the light strokes stay visible under indoor light.
Pre-production check
Check the 24 pt title, where the thin strokes can fade on a cream ground; increase the contrast or the weight. Confirm the 9 pt details read at arm's length and that the card still reads on a noticeboard at an angle.
Technical & licence verification
Confirm included OTF/TTF/WOFF formats, full glyph tables and licence coverage on the live store page before batch production.
