  4. Hi Wilma, I understand you are having difficulty with the font download.
    Click on the 'here' link to the font download - then a page will come up with lots of various fonts - all of which are available for you to download. Select the line of fonts that you want and to the right you will see a download button. Click on this and then an option will pop up for you to save the file on your computer. To load the fonts then follow the instructions under Hints and Tips - hope this helps, Ann xxx

  6. Wow! - love those freebies - must remember to come back on when I am on my home computer to download. I have a query about digital downloads - I do use them, but I always have a fear in the back of my mind that my cards could easily be ruined if the paper gets wet or something. Should I be doing something to make the ink more permanent (I know you can buy special sprays but I think they are quite expensive and is the expense justifiable?), or do I have a fear of something that isn't going to happen?

  7. Andrea, you should not have a fear of using digital papers - your inkjet printer will be able to copy well providing you use good quality paper - ideally about 160gsm to 300gsm depending upon whether you are matting and layering or creating the sturdy card outer. No paper or card will survive getting wet, even pre-printed, so go and experiment - I think you will be pleased. Ann xx
