I am trying to join the letters Peace together so that there is not a space. I know that you can do this in microsoft word, However can you do this in works :dunno:

Someone has asked me to make Peace out of pine using a 400 font size.

I could always cut the letters out of the paper and then glue them together, But I don't think this will be as accurate.

Any ideas.

Yes, some sort of script type font ought to do it.

Sergio Script will join up all the lower case letters but the Upper case 'P' will need joining.
Max size in Works will be 72, so you will have to juggle it a bit with freehand on paper to get 400.

see if you can find the kerning option (should be in a paragraph menu) and change the value to 0 - that will take out the space completly

No joy I'm afraid. Went into Format, paragraph. Unable to change the spacing.

Ended up printing the word and then cutting them and joining them together.

Cheers guys.

I know this is a week old now, but I always use Lucida Handwriting script or Edwardian script for joined up.
