How the letters in Gregory connect

3 of Gregory's 5 joins leave the letter on an undercurve. The exceptions are g-o, where g ends on an overcurve that carries into the downcurve opening of o and o-r, where o ends on a checkstroke that carries into the undercurve opening of r. Remember: the capital G stands alone, so lift the pencil before the next letter.
