Transfering font from a word file

[rparrny]

I am trying to make a Seder plate for Passover and was unable to find a Hebrew font on SCAL2, so I made a word file with the Hebrew letters and tried first copying and pasting...no go...then I tried importing the word document...no luck there either.

Can anyone help me please?!

Can you post the document on here.

You mean I post it on the site somewhere?

I tried to post it on the reply but got an error message...most likely recognized one font and two languages. Sorry

You have to take your word document and save it as a jpeg. The way I have learned to do this is copy the item into paint, and then save as a jpeg. My daughter is usually handy to help me, since I do not do it very often, but if you need more information let me know and I can get better directions. You can than bring the jpeg up in SCAL2 and trace it.

I hope this helps, or someone has another suggestion.

Your best option is to print to pdf. There is a free print to pdf print driver here http://www.cutepdf.com/products/cutepdf/writer.asp You use this just like a printer, except that it exports a PDF document.

Install the print driver, then open your Word doc and print it to the CutePDF printer. This will give you a vector PDF that you can import into SCAL without needing to trace the text. HTH

Rivka, there is a free font called DAVID, it is the Hebrew alphabet. I can't seem to find it at the moment. Maybe someone else knows which site it is on. Or Google free fonts and look for DAVID.

Rivka this is not the one I was referring to but here is another one. It's free.
