While there are thousands of free fonts available for download online, sometimes it can be really hard to wade through everything that's available.

We've put together a list of 15 great handwriting fonts -- hand-lettered, brush, and calligraphic -- and most of these fonts are downloadable with no strings attached, and can be used for commercial purposes. In some cases you may have to share your email address in order to download the font.

1. Cavorting

Cavorting is a great hand-lettered brush font that is available for free both for personal and commercial use. If you want to get the same effect in the screenshot below using Photoshop, check out this tutorial. This trick will come in handy with quite a few of the fonts on this list.

Available in four styles, Mathlete can also be used in both personal and commercial work. The font is only available as capital letters. As the example below shows, this is a great choice for address labels as it has a handwritten feel but is very legible, and includes a ton of glyphs.
