Title: Steve's Word Puzzles
Post by: sp_343 on December 14, 2010, 07:09:01 pm

Does anyone know what type of font Steve uses to create these word puzzles??  I would like to make custom names or words for these as gifts.

Thanks for your help!!

Chris....

MS Word has a feature called "Word Art" that lets you do some very interesting things.

If you have Word you can play with that using all the fonts that MS recognizes...

I've played around with MS Word Art...but I can't get it to make the "ZigSaw" pieces.

I was watching one of his video's where he showed how he creates them using Corel Draw. He also mentioned the font he uses, but can't remember off hand, will post if I think of it. Here is a link to the video http://www.youtube.com/user/sdgood#p/u/177/kUG3_EVzcI4
