Not sure if this is the best place for this question/request.  I am making phone/e-book stands for nieces & nephews and would like to put a monogram/initial on it.  What font would you recommend.  I have Birds of Paradise and like three of the four initials.  I don't like the "J".  The letters, for first names only, are A T  J  M.  Size wise about 2.5 - 3".    The stands are 1/4" poplar.  A Steve Good design but resized bigger (https://www.stevedgood.com/phonestand2019.pdf)

Are you just putting 2 initials on each or the first name.  With the A in the bird of paradise font you would have to add bridge.  

Why not full first name in Script_mt.

Let me know more and I will give it a go tomorrow

I decided, overnight, that I will just do their whole name.  I am able to do that in Inkscape or Open office myself.  Thanks for the offer.  I will look at the font you suggested.

Attached is this font in case you don't have it.   

I use it all the time in Inkscape.  just have to make sure spacing is set to 0 and watch carefully with letters like lower case "e" and "l" as the river is tight so I go a little short on the tail when scrolling

If you have any problems give me a shout.
