If you use a printer, I recommend that you print dozens of samples to try again and again until you are satisfied.

Fill in the printed form

Note, you need to use a black brush. Which kind of ink head is a bit big.

I only have this double-ended whiteboard marker, so I’ll write 2 copies. 1 copy is large and the other 1 uses the small ink tip of the brush.

Any ink stains outside the specified square will be cut off in the font processing step. To be honest, I also wrote 4 copies, it was quite tiring to get the final result, very tired.

Scan or take a photo of the completed text form on the computer

If you have a scanner at home, just feed the sample straight into the scanner. The parameters can be adjusted as shown in the image below.
