I found this extremely interesting article, referring to human's handwritting. According to the article that i read, it says different handwritting will have different explanation, specifically in human behaviour, specifically their attitude and personality. I was quite reluctant to trust all these initially, until I tried comparing the handwritting below with a friend of mine. They have so similar handwritting, and upon analyses, it seems that their characteristics are so similar!

There is one example given by this expert who analyses human's handwritting.

According to the expert, the handwritting above is indicating that the writter is a tension person. This expert analyses the writter's handwritting by looking at the angle and the baseline of the handwritting, along with the narrow and spacing of each letter and / or words.

Attitude: The writer's attempt to maintain a vertical slant reflects his effort to adopt a detached or impersonal attitude, positively characterized by independence and restraint, but negatively by self-centeredness and rigidity. This aloof and impartial demeanor, reinforced by wide spacing between lines, reveals someone resisting the influence of both outside forces and inner emotions, preferring to rely on reason. His is an artificial or escapist attitude, including suppression of emotion rather than absence of emotion.

Emotion: The writer's emotional susceptibility is found in both the fluctuating middle zone size and baseline. It shows that the writter encountered emotional pressure for which there is no release. Equally, the diminished and sometimes near threaded middle zone, small compared to upper and lower zones, showing that he is an insignificant but defensive person. It also represents his weak self-image. Offsetting upper zone dominance is the long, pressured lower zone, but sometimes with full loops denoting a strong sexual drive, sometimes blunt ended denoting frustration of that drive. Preoccupation with instinctual forces is reinforced by middle zone letters and terminals which drop into the lower zone.

Interest: The considerable difference in length between words over the middle zone portrays the writer's never resting ambitions, interests and goals at the outer limits of his ability to achieve. This causes restlessness and dissatisfaction with his life. The handwriting has poor impulse rhythm further suggests the writer is uncomfortable with his inner nature. The writer's energy is primarily funneled into the area of his demanding conscience, represented by the dominating in the upper zone, as well as middle zone angularity and contraction of middle zone letters, particularly of ovals. His ambitions and beliefs control his life. However, upper zone covering strokes and middle zone vowel covering strokes point to the existence of the writer's hypocrisy in these areas of life.

Personality: The high form level, angularity and regularity in arrangement and pressure reveal that the writer possesses good intelligence, hard working qualities etc., the perseverance necessary for success in his chosen occupation. He is sometimes stubborn to face the obstacles or adversity.

Work Life: In his work life, the small angular writing, together with careful punctuation and precise i-dots, portray the writer's good concentration, his hard working and responsible qualities, one who does not shun the drudgery of detail. Connected writing reflects his consistency of thought and a single-minded person. He sometimes will tackle problems at hand in a direct and practical way, and is unhampered by sentimentality or ties to the past, as shown by lack of flourishes in every letters written. He is purposeful and disciplined as expressed in the overall regularity in his writing.

Behaviour: His social behavior is outwardly friendly or at least impartial, shown by small garlands together with verticality, mask a dogmatic viewpoint, as revealed by baseline angularity and some downward terminals. His detached demeanor is reinforced by wide interlinear and interword spacing. The tall upper zone depict that he is ambitiou, tagged along with arrogance. In addition, the tall upper zone speaks of scholarly and philosophical pursuits, and the idealist who expects perfectionist standards of himself.

Relationship: The compressed quality of the writing, along with largely missing or down reaching (some counterstrokes) terminals, show that in close, as well as casual relationships, but definitely selfish and ungenerous. Closed or retraced ovals and narrow interletter spacing reflect limited sharing of his true feelings. The ovals suggest occasional explosions of verbal temper because of emotional tension and sometimes, frustration. The horizontal pressure express his authoritative nature and the imposition of his will on others. These characteristics combined with precise, strong i-dots, many directly over the i, indicate he is emphatic in what he usually says and does. The potential for cruelty is evident in the blunt endings of many downstrokes or counterstrokes. Left tendencies balancing right tendencies testify to a personality divided and held in tension between introverted and extroverted qualities. Such tendencies, together with narrow letters and moderately quick writing, describe the cautious and inhibited individual, pulled equally between the inner forces of his nature and outer forces of his environment.

Overall: The writters opposing forces of idealism and conscience versus frustrated instinctual drives. The battle between the two results in an overcontrolled personality, uncomfortable with himself, paying the price for bottling up his emotions and natural instincts with possible unpredictable eruptions of emotion.
