Some images come blank from other Disers, Some we make up ourselves using bits and pieces of clip art found online, and some are simply found online by doing various searches.
Various programs are used, such as Microsoft Word, photo shop, photo shop elements, photo explosion ect...
To change the size and have it come out right, for me anyways, I need to use the photo/image editing program I use to make up the graphics. I can change the size in my photo explosion program to fit on a sheet of
8.5" by 11", any way I want it.
There are many photo editing programs you can download for a free trial period from online, such as Microsoft word, photoshop, and oh, just thought of another program called GIMP. (I've never yet been able to figure out gimp though, but I'm short on patience for programs that don't really come with instructions, LOL).
Hope this info is helpful to you.
What Font type do you use for the Names with characters in them?
