Scratchy font refers to a type of font style that appears as if the letters were drawn by hand using a scratchy or jagged pen stroke. It features irregular lines and jagged edges, giving it a rough and gritty appearance. Scratchy fonts are commonly used in graphic design, advertising, and branding to convey a sense of edginess, rebellion, or a DIY aesthetic. The font style is popular in modern design and is often used to create a bold, loud, or grunge look in digital media.
