+<p>
+    Playwrite Ireland Guides is a single-weight font designed to harmonize seamlessly with its companion, <a href="https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Playwrite+IE">Playwrite Ireland</a>. This font includes guideline markers on the baseline, x-height, ascenders, and descenders, providing a visual aid for primary school children. These guides help young learners grasp the proportions of letterforms and assist them in drawing letters with confidence and accuracy.
+</p>
+<p>
+	The NCAA publishes the national curriculum, and issues of language are dealt
+	with in the <em>“Primary Language Curriculum”</em>, which was last published in
+	2019. This document is fully bilingual in English and Irish Gaelic. An
+	additional guideline document for teachers called
+	<em>”Primary Language Curriculum. Support Material for teachers. Writing”</em>,
+	is also published by the NCAA. This devotes a full section to handwriting and
+	suggests that children can be introduced to cursive writing as early as the
+	junior infant level.
+</p>
+<p>
+	In practice, however, each school can choose its own methods for teaching
+	handwriting. Most teachers start with either print script (locally called
+	“manuscript”) or precursive letters in junior and senior infant levels. From
+	Class 1 onwards, students are taught to add exit strokes to letters and then
+	connect them to achieve a cursive hand.
+</p>

+
+<h4>Playwrite Ireland characteristics</h4>
+
+<p>
+	Guidelines are present in all characters except for those used for letter spacing. To create a versatile font for teachers designing practice sheets that feature guidelines without corresponding letters, the underscore is used as a key character. It replaces the glyph shape with the guidelines and matches the width of the letter space.

+<h4>Family name in font menus</h4>
+<p>
+	Playwrite Ireland appears in font menus with a two-letter country code ‘IE’,
+	<strong>Playwrite IE Guides</strong>, and features a single Regular weight.
+	<br />
+	The download .zip file includes the static font for this guided version.

+
+<h3>Playwrite fonts for schools</h3>
+<p>
+	The Playwrite school fonts are based on the findings of Primarium, a
+	groundbreaking educational effort that documents the history and current
+	practice of handwriting models taught to primary school students worldwide.
+	This typographic engine serves teachers, educators, and parents by generating
+	localized libre fonts. These Playwrite fonts are complemented by
+	<a href="https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Playpen+Sans"> Playpen Sans</a>, an
+	informal and fun typeface designed for annotations, instructions, and student
+	notes – that also includes emojis.
+</p>
+<p>
+	For more information about the Primarium project, visit
+	<a href="https://primarium.info/">primarium.info</a> and to learn more about
+	handwriting education in Ireland, see

+<h4>How to install the fonts?</h4>
+
+<p>
+	<strong>Windows:</strong> Download the font file to your computer. Navigate to
+	where you saved the font file and double-click it to open. Click the "Install"
+	button at the top of the font preview window. The font is now installed and
+	ready to be used across your apps.
+</p>
+<p>
+	<strong>macOS:</strong> After downloading the font file to your Mac,
+	right-click it in Finder and select "Open With" > "Font Book". Then, click
+	"Install Font" in the font preview window that pops up. The font is now
+	installed and ready to be used across your apps.
+</p>
+
+<h4>How to use the fonts in apps?</h4>
+
+<p>
+	The Playwrite font family uses complex OpenType features to generate connected
+	writing. Some common applications require these features to be manually
+	activated.
+</p>
+<p>
+	Note: This font family doesn't include Bold or Italic styles, so please avoid
+	applying them in text editors. If you use the common 'B' and 'I' buttons, you
+	will automatically generate low-quality styles.
+</p>
+<p>
+    <strong>Google Docs and Slides:</strong> From the font selector drop-down, go to "More Fonts" 
+    and search for the desired font name, in this case, "Playwrite IE Guides", and click OK. 
+    If some text is already selected, the font choice will apply.
+</p>
+<p>
+	<strong>Microsoft Word:</strong> Go to Format in the Menu bar, select Font, and
+	then the Advanced tab. Activate "Contextual Alternates" and "Kerning for fonts
+	below" to apply these settings to all text sizes.
+</p>
+<p>
+	<strong>LibreOffice:</strong> In macOS, to select the different styles, go to
+	Format in the Menu bar, select Character, and use the Typeface menu.
+</p>
+<p>
+	<strong>Adobe InDesign:</strong> Open the Paragraph Panel and select Adobe
+	"World-Ready Paragraph Composer" from the contextual menu.
+</p>
+<p>
+	<strong>Adobe Illustrator:</strong> Navigate to Preferences > Type, check the
+	"Show Indic Options" box, and close preferences. Then open the Paragraph Panel
+	and select "Middle Eastern Composer" from the contextual menu.
+</p>
+<p>
+	<strong>Adobe Photoshop:</strong> Access the Paragraph Panel, then choose
+	"World-Ready Layout" from the contextual menu.
+</p>
+<p>
+	The above instructions are also available in
