What does Novak Djokovic’s signature look like?

Novak Djokovic’s foundation specimen places sharp central strokes inside a broad enclosing curve. A long low return sweeps beneath the writing, while a crossing line travels toward the right. Compare the tight angular center with the surrounding oval: the autograph’s breadth and height depend heavily on its enclosing gesture rather than the small name band alone.

Novak Djokovic signature and handwriting analysis

Novak Djokovic’s signature sample has a forward slant at the edge of the measured range, a near-level baseline and 4 enclosed loops. Comparing autograph strokes, baseline angle (+0.5°), slant (+40°), opening ratio (0.71×) and enclosed loops (4) reveals how individual signature traits contrast with standard handwriting features. Use the layers to follow the writing line, letter band, slant and enclosed loops.

Opening, letter body and finish

The opening is lower than the typical letter body. The opening-to-body ratio is 0.71×, while the whole image is 1.38 times as wide as it is tall. The rightmost ink finishes above the writing line; look at this ending separately from the slant of the letters themselves.

Loops and the lower flourish

The sample contains 4 enclosed loops and 1 main ink group. The lower flourish spans about 81% of the full ink width, giving the name another line to follow beneath its letters.

Height of the opening letter relative to the typical letters that follow. 1× means similar heights.

The opening stands 0.7 times as high as the following letters. The purple box marks its area; the dashed blue guide marks the letter-body band.

Enclosed loops

4
4 enclosed loops highlighted in the measured signature4 enclosed spaces

Closed spaces surrounded by ink, counted across the whole signature.

There are 4 enclosed loops in the sample. Orange outlines locate them. Compare their size and placement within the name.

Ink groups

1
1 connected ink group; each circle represents one groupeach circle = one ink group1 group in the sample

Separate connected areas of ink in the image. Dots or detached letters can form additional groups.

The signature contains 1 main ink group. Most of the visible ink joins into one connected shape. Look at where those shapes join or separate.

Ink density

16%
16.4 percent of signature area filled with ink16.4% filled areagrid = 100% of signature area

Share of the signature’s enclosing rectangle occupied by ink.

Ink covers 16% of the measured signature area; the rest is open space. Compare the open areas with the thickness of the visible strokes.

Underline / flourish

81% wide
Lower flourish spans 81 percent of signature width81% of name width

Length of a lower underline or flourish compared with the full signature width.

A lower underline or flourish spans about 81% of the name’s width. Its highlighted area shows how much emphasis sits beneath the letters.

Finish height

+0.6×
Finish +0.6 typical letter heights from baseline1×baseline+0.6× · above / below line

Height of the rightmost ending above or below the baseline, in typical letter heights. Positive is above; negative is below.

The ending sits close to the writing line (+0.6 letter heights). The orange guide locates the finish relative to the red baseline.

Width / height

1.4 : 1
Signature ink width 421 pixels and height 304 pixels421 px wide × 304 px high

Full ink width divided by full ink height, including the signature’s tall and low strokes.

The shape is 1.4 times as wide as it is high. Its ink spans 421 × 304 image pixels. Compare the horizontal spread with the vertical reach of the capitals and loops.

Stroke path 2512 pixels compared with 421 pixel signature widthstroke path2,512 pxname width421 pxpath is 6.0× the width

Total traced stroke length divided by signature width. More turns and retraced shapes add length.

The traced strokes total 2,512 pixels, about 6.0 times the signature’s width. Look for loops, turns and flourishes that add movement within that width.

Angularity

Number of corners per 100 pixels of traced ink outline. Higher values indicate more frequent sharp turns.

The outline contains about 2.5 corners per 100 pixels. Inspect the turns in the pen-path layer and compare pointed changes of direction with rounded curves.
