is the only script font ‘built
in’. However, there are other useful calligraphic fonts included with
modern TeX distributions.

Type 1 versions of the fonts are available in the AMS fonts

in your preamble. You may find the font rather too big; if so, you can use a scaled version of it like this:\DeclareMathAlphabet{\mathscr}{OT1}{pzc}{m}{it}
Adobe Zapf Chancery (which the above examples use) is distributed in any but the most basic PostScript printers. A substantially identical font (to the extent that the same metrics may be used) is available from URW, called URW Chancery L: it is distributed as part of the “URW base35” bundle; the urwchancal package (which includes virtual fonts to tweak appearance) provides for its use as a calligraphic font. The TeX Gyre font family also includes a Chancery replacement, Chorus; use it with tgchorus (and ignore the complaints about needing to change font shape).\DeclareFontFamily{OT1}{pzc}{} \DeclareFontShape{OT1}{pzc}{m}{it}{<-> s * [0.900] pzcmi7t}{} \DeclareMathAlphabet{\mathscr}{OT1}{pzc}{m}{it}
