Re: Monogram help!!
I found PowerPoint to be easier to use than Word for making monograms.

Re: Monogram help!!
okay... you know that you have to make three text boxes with the initials in each box. I'm assuming your issue was mine... grouping them together? Well, I found the best way to do this was to... wait I have to go do it in order to explain it... lol. Okay... after you insert the "new text boxes", you have to click on each one and go to "Format", click on "Text Box" and choose "No Fill" and "No Line". (do this for all 3 text boxes)...
crud. You know I can't do it now? I've already done this twice! But this is on my work computer. I did it at home. If I figure it out again, I'll let you know! Sorry!

Re: Monogram help!!
you have to group it all together (which is a b!tch), and then copy and paste it into Photo Shop or a similar program.

I think God feels bad for us and lets it work (after hours of ), because I couldn't even tell you before how I did mine! It was luck! lol

Re: Monogram help!!
I was trying to do this the other night!! I feel like I need Monograms for Dummies!!
So I got to the part where I copied the "Group" in MS Paint so that I could save it as a jpg. But when I did that it came out really small, and when I zoomed it went "out of focus" so it wasn't readable. How do I make it bigger w/out messing it up??

Re: Monogram help!!
I can't even copy it as a whole picture in Word...it's only letting me copy the three text boxes but separately.
