Frequently Asked Questions
What wording works best for wedding calligraphy?
Short, emotional lines perform best. Put poetic phrases and names in script, then keep logistical details straightforward.
How many script fonts should I combine?
Usually one script font plus one clean companion style is enough. More decorative fonts can make invitations harder to scan.
Can these exports be used for seating charts and signs?
Yes. Use transparent PNG files so script text layers cleanly over your board, card, or poster designs.
