neat idea to have the reversible quilt......I might have to try that next

Moonpi 12-06-2008 11:49 AM

How beautiful, colors and patterns and workmanship....

but ...

That is one of those display fonts that was NEVER intended to be used in all caps!!!!

I'm sure she will pick a more appropriate font for yours!


Blame it on my high school Printing and Lithography teacher.

Moonpi where do you find that kind of information? When I went to school we didn't have fonts and we had A computer for math class but it was a punch card that we had to punch holes in to get the formula to work. It would be nice to know those types of rules for future references.

Moonpi where do you find that kind of information? When I went to school we didn't have fonts
I went to technical school half a day and learned to run printing presses, set type, operate commercial darkroom equipment, make plates for offset printing, and print stuff. Our final project was to research, write, typeset, and publish a paperback book of 50 pages or more.


Any desktop publishing site will explain proper use of display fonts. When all else fails, just try it both ways and stand back a few feet. The legibilty factor will become apparent immediately. There is a slideshow about typography here:

How very lucky you two are to have each other. The love shines through.

DA Mayer 12-07-2008 09:06 AM

And there are 2 more sisters for sisterly love. I feel sorry for dbeck's daughter and my daughter, they only have each other to call sister.

pal 12-07-2008 09:33 AM

I know - and each sister's name starts with a "D". Do your daughters'
names start with a "D" too? It must be wonderful to be together, expecially during the holidays.

DA Mayer 12-07-2008 09:39 AM

Nope K and B. but on of the sisters has 4 girls that start with A and a brother has 4 boys that start with J
