Is there a font or automation that imulates hadwriting??

[Wranglergal]

I need to create a cover slide for a presentation that will look like it is
being written while the presenter speaks it.

Wranglergal,

There is not a font that will automatically look like it's being written.

There are plenty of fonts that look like handwriting.

If you get clever with powerpoints "custom animations" then you can fake the
effect of something being written down.

see

and one of these tutorials (i think on this page) also contains a
handwriting effect

What I've done with satisfactory results is to choose a font that looks like
handwriting. Then animate the text so that it appears on your screen one
letter at a time. Set the timing to very fast. Then attach a sound file to
play during the animation that sounds like someone scribbling quickly on a
piece of paper. You can find such a sound on the net if you search. It's
pretty neat.
