Instagram has two profile fields with very different rules. The bio accepts styled characters, so a cursive bio is easy and survives saving; the 150-character limit counts each styled letter as one character. The username accepts only letters, digits, full stops and underscores, so every styled character is rejected there. Captions and comments accept the styles as well. If a bio reverts to plain letters after saving, the app filtered that set; the complete cursive alphabets such as Bold Script are filtered least. For an exact font in a story or a post image, use an image from the font generator instead.
