Do you have a favorite FONT CD?

[maslex]

I love to scrapbook and love to look at everyone's work. I've been noticing that not everyone uses their own handwriting on their pages. I'm assuming you have a CD full of fonts that you use? Do you download them off of the internet?

I'm specifically looking for a CD that I can install onto my computer so the fonts will be in Word. Can you point me in the right direction?

How is the one from Becky Higgins?

I like the ones from CK. They have fonts shaped like bugs and cars and all sorts of things besides normal ones. I think they are $40 in Michaels, but I used a coupon to buy them.

I like the site http://www.letteringdelights.com/. I like this because you can order as many or as few as you want and only pay for the ones you like. It is a HUGE selection too! You can order a CD from them of all the fonts you order, or - if you want to use them right away, you can download immediately after checking out.

They have two options of lettering:

1. Fonts: When you download these, they are added to your Word Font list (this is in C:\Programs\Windows\Fonts). It is available right away for use in Word. They can only (easily) be 1 color. While you can change the colors per letter, the whole letter is one color - this is a limitation of Word.
2. Alphabets: For these you do need to download a small application. But is totally worth it! These are usually multi-color letters in shapes. The way I usually work with these are as images in Word. Type what I want in the app, copy from the app, paste into word and re-size to be how big/small I want my title.

They also have journalette options. I've only used a few of these and more often for my digital layouts.
