Scroll saw font
I need a nice bold scroll saw (stencil) font for a project (mailbox):
I need the word POSTE. I hate to have to pay $10 for a couple of letters. Does anyone know where that could be available for free. TIA Gil |

In Word you would select the Font and type size, then go to Format - Font, then check Outline in Effects. Bill |

I have looked at many fonts, and I thank you for the Format Outline (I
didn't know that). I like the font in the plan for a mailbox, the one from Wood Mag. I will try to include a photo of that plan. I need to have a French version: POSTE of that same font.

This appears to be very similar to what I see in MS Word with the "Bookman Old Style" font and 'Bold". |

This is very good: almost identical. Thank you very much.

Sorry if I tread on the shoes of this workgroup which I love. No, you didn't tread on any toes - I'm just pointing out that if you attach pictures to posts in this ng, most people aren't going to see them. If you want to be sure that your pics can be seen, post them to a binaries group. -- Regards, Doug Miller (alphageek at milmac dot com) Nobody ever left footprints in the sands of time by sitting on his butt.
