Fonts
They look flat because they are low quality images. I captured mine with SnagIt,
the image on the left is from the web site. I didn't try to match the font.

They must have changed the ad because that looks flat to me. I still think you need to use a graphics program and create whatever text you need with that. Add your effects and save it as a graphic. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "PatJennings" wrote in message ... I would like the font on the cover of the brochure I'm creating to stand out.

I haven't found a font that will not work within Publisher, there are probably some, but I haven't run into one. Is there something special you wanted to do with a font? -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "PatJennings" wrote in message ... This may not be the appropriate newsgroup for my question. It concerns fonts that have an appearance of being three-dimensional. Other appear to have shading that is "soft" or cloudlike.

Use two text frames for the text. The background text frame has the text in black (or grey) for the shadow. In whatever font you choose. Then the foeground text frame has the text in the foreground colour in the same font, but set to transparent - select the frame then Ctrl + T. Move the foreground text frame around until you get the desired offset. michael adams .... |

Should add: cancel\untick the [wrap text around objects] box in the Text Frame Properties dialogue box Which is near the bottom of the Format Menu, when a text frame is selected. michael adams .... |
