Fonts with swashes??

[bbowen0109]

Does Elements have any fonts that have swashes? Here's an example of what I'm looking for. http://www.letterheadfonts.com/tipsandtricks/swashes/index.shtml

Please let me know how I can add a swash onto my fonts. I'm trying to make a sports collages for my daughters team.

Thanks,

Hi - Elements uses the fonts you have installed on your system. You could buy a font like that or maybe add the swoosh/swash with a custom brush or shape. Hope this helps - if not keep asking
Here is one that's free and looks like that cola I've heard of.

Hi,

I've used Marcelle for a baseball look. Find it here (http://www.dafont.com/marcelle.font).

For Windows XP, once you've downloaded and extracted it, copy the file to Start>Control Panel>Fonts. Restart Elements and it will show up in your font list.

Sorry, forgot to say that with the Marcelle font, you'll be downloading the script font and the swash font. Type your word with the script, switch to the swash font. You'll invoke the swash with your keyboard but you'll have to look at the font info (I think it will be in a read me file when you download or on the daFont site) to figure out which swash you get from each letter.
