How it works
North Dakota bubble letters on two lines of a sideways sheet, every hole left white: both o's, the D and both a's. That is Fredoka's doing, and on a single line the name would print about half this height.

Bismarck, Fargo and the regions
After a first print, North Dakota words in bubble letters lists the rest. Peace Garden / State is the nickname. Bismarck is the capital and Fargo the largest city; Grand / Forks and Minot are two of its larger cities. Red River / Valley is the flat east, Drift / Prairie part of the middle, and Turtle / Mountains another region. White / Butte is the highest point.
A river, a lake and the center of a continent
Missouri / River and Lake / Sakakawea belong together: the river forms the lake behind the Garrison Dam. Rugby is the town believed to hold the geographic center of North America, and its five letters print large.
- Chewy prints the name tallest of the six but leaves only the D white; the o's and the a's turn to dark marks.
- One letter per page, under More options, makes an eleven-sheet banner. A South Dakota banner in the same font shares nine of the sheets.
- Minot comes out tallest of the ready words in Fredoka, Peace Garden / State smallest.

Yes. Type NORTH on one line and DAKOTA on the next. Capitals have six holes, in the O's, the R, the D and the A's. Mochiy Pop One keeps all six white; Fredoka keeps four.
