Cursive copywork from any text

A cursive copywork generator prints a text in a teaching cursive font on handwriting lines, with a blank line beneath each row for the student to copy. Copying whole sentences every day builds cursive fluency faster than drilling single letters. DittoSheets prints any text you paste this way and keeps verse numbers, stanza breaks and punctuation where they belong.
