    Okay so I bought the Anna Griffith DIY wedding invitations. It gives you the template to print on the overlay, not the cardstock. Well, everytime FI and I have tried to print on the overlay there are small black lines at the top of the text. Did anyone else have this problem? Also, if you could please give me script font options I'd appreciate it. Pictures are great too!! Thanks Bees!!!

    for fonts, check out dafont.com, they have TONS!

    PS, post a picture of the lines your getting when you print, it will help us figure out whats happening.

    Have you tried setting the print quality higher? Or maybe your printer isn't taking to the overlay properly - have you tried taping it to a piece of A4 paper and seeing if you get the lines then? I agree with ClairDarling though, post a photo so we can help!

    @Clair - w/ Dafont.com do you know if you can use their fonts in photoshop?

    awesome! thanks!  I needed some old typewriter fonts and they had at least 6 free ones that would work really well.  PERFECT!

    I figured it out...I had to hold the overlay as it went into the printer because it would catch and make the lines and make it crooked.

    @ClairDarling thanks soo much for dafont.com! It was awesome.

     I will post pics tomorrow when I actually print all of the invites out!
