My beloved mule of 45 yes 45 years just passed away last week, and it has really tore me up.
I want to make a sign for him. I took a side view photo I have of him. put it in Photoshop, and turned it
black. then I put in Coreldraw and turned into a vector... I would like to put his name on it. and other words. but
I just can not find a font in my computer that will work good. Can anyone help me with a good font name. or where to find
one. I went to some of the free font sites. but I can not download them. or then keep taking me to other pages. and can
not find them. Ill post Jackson's photo in the brag area.

You can edit most fonts to make them scroll-able by adding bridges to support the floaters. The Stencil fonts already have those bridges in them, and there's one I like called Scroll Beach Italic with bridges in it.

When you download the ttf (TrueType Font - means it can be scaled to different sizes) you need to install it on your computer, then it can be used in programs that use the installed fonts. Here's how to install the font on a Windows computer:
