While visiting http://fluent.io/ I started to ask myself about the best way to avoid 'F_l' to look like an 'H' in script fonts.
Not as easy as it seems... How do you solve it? Any tricks?

    I think the trick is to let the other letters in the word blow away the cloud of ambiguity.

    Great eg. Sye! Clients who purchase lettering miss stuff like this yet gripe about the shape of individual letters that are not even a player in the scheme of things.

    Has Fall befallen you?  :-)

    agreeing with James: Context reveals all. I don't think a bit of ambiguity hurts a script font.
