About CDC Hand fonts
CDC Hand is a set of 3 fonts meant to be a fallback font. Why 3 fonts: a font cannot have more than 65535 glyph and Unicode curently has 149186 caracters.
The font has a hand typeface because it is faster to make, but it will still take years since I am doing it by myself and am not a professional designer.
The project is about the same as Google Noto fonts but simpler and in only 3 files
