How it works
Warning in bubble letters on one sideways sheet in Fredoka, the only one of the six fonts that keeps the a and the g white inside. It heads a door sign or a poster, not a real safety sign.

Orange for Warning, yellow for Caution
On US safety signs each signal word has its colors: Warning is black on orange, Caution black on yellow, Danger white on red and Notice white on blue. To match, fill these letters black and color the paper round them orange. For Danger and Notice, leave the letters white and color round them.
A bedroom door, a desk, a play
After your first print, open Sign words in bubble letters. Warning / Keep Out, Stay Out, Private, Knock / First and Do Not / Disturb are for a door; Genius / at Work, Artist / at Work and Testing in / Progress for a desk or a classroom. Wet / Floor, Hard Hat / Area and Under / Construction dress a stage or a block corner.
- Wet / Floor prints more than twice as tall as Enter at Your / Own Risk, the longest sign here.
- Chewy draws Warning about a quarter taller than Fredoka, with the a and the g shrunk to dark dots; Hollow opens them.
- Under More options, One letter per page prints Warning as seven upright sheets in six shapes: the n comes twice.
Questions and answers
How do you draw Warning in bubble letters?
Pencil W, a, r, n, i, n, g with wide gaps, the W widest. Round every stroke into a fat outline, keep a ring inside the a and the g, float the dot over the i, then rub out the pencil.
Can I put my own words under Warning?
Yes. Warning stays in the box: press Enter after it and type a second line, up to 40 characters in all. Warning over Lab prints as tall as Warning alone; a second line wider than Warning shrinks both.
What is the difference between Danger, Warning and Caution?
They are the signal words of US safety signs, in order. Danger marks the most serious hazard, Warning the next and Caution the mildest. Notice is for a message with no hazard in it.
