How it works

Decorative letters, one to a page and large: the page opens on a solid black A in Rye, a wood-type capital with spurs. Type your own initial, or a word for one sheet a letter.

Nine ornate faces

They are the font tiles inside More options. Rye and Sancreek are wood-type poster capitals. Ewert is the same kind with an outline and a shadow. Diplomata SC is very wide. Abril Fatface is a fat face, heavy stems beside hairlines. Shrikhand is a heavy slant, Fascinate is Art Deco, Monoton is drawn in parallel lines and Bungee Shade casts a 3D shadow.

Fancy letters to print and cut out

Set Look to Hollow and the letter prints as a thin outline: color it in, or cut along the line. Plain prints it solid, ready to frame. Gold prints a gold fade.

  • Bungee Shade is an outline by design, so Hollow and Gold print it unchanged.

Questions and answers

How do I print a decorative letter P or a decorative letter H?

Type the letter in the box and it fills one upright page. After your first change, the list Pick your initial does the same. A word prints one letter a page: BABY is four sheets.

Are these decorated letters made of wood or metal?

No. Nothing here is for sale or shipped: each letter is a sheet you print at home. Printed solid it can go in a frame as it is, and printed Hollow it is an outline on paper.

Are these 8x10 printable letters?

The sheets print on US Letter or A4, one letter to a page. On US Letter the letter stays clear of the paper's edges, so the printed sheet can be trimmed to fit an 8x10 frame.
