You don’t necessarily need a fancy graphic design programme to create cool graphics. One of the most useful graphic tools I use is web and wingdings fonts . You can find these in any Office programme e.g. Microsoft Word.
- Go to insert symbol and click on the down arrow beside the word ‘font’.
- Click on a symbol you like and then click insert to put it into your document.
- Now the real fun begins! Make it bigger and colour it. If you have some basic graphic skills try creating a coloured square and placing the symbol (coloured white on top of it). Looks pretty good doesn’t it?
The telephone and mail symbols can be great to use instead of the words phone and mail when you are putting contact details in a pamphlet.
Have fun and let us know what you achieved!
