April is National Poetry Month- Celebrate the Poet in Your Family... In Six Languages!

What better way to celebrate National Poetry Month than to Celebrate with a book of your family poet's poetry preserved in one of our archival quality hard bound books! Last year, I had the opportunity to do just this, preserving my Grandfathers poetry in our 7.5"x10" Storybook. This size makes a great heirloom quality book, especially one heavy in text- and have you heard? Heritage Makers is now publishing in new International Fonts. All current Heritage Makers fonts will support most Latin international characters. Supported languages include Spanish, Italian, French, Portuguese, and German. To insert a special character, use Alt + number for PC users and Opt + number for Mac users. Use the character map on your computer to learn the number for characters you want to insert. Remember, with this new enhancement, a few characters may not be available or may look different from what you expect in some fonts. All characters in all fonts will print the same way they appear in the editor, so if you are unsure about how a character will appear, just type it in to a text box to see how it will look.



Also, the first time you log in to Studio, you will be asked to allow HM to store an unlimited amount of data on your machine. This will only happen the first time you log in to Studio and will actually make your Studio load faster. You’ll be amazed at the speed you’ll see with each additional log in.
