The deadline for the AACA Newsletter Contest has passed! Bad News!

The good news........ Because some former contestants have not sent in their registration form (handed out in Philly) and so many have not registered there will be an extension.

The "New DEADLINE" will be May 12, 2006. Don't delay.

Don't feel bad either, as I forgot to send my form in too.

Thanks. I'm still not quite happy with it. Font size is one of the biggest issues. Trying to find the right size and tracking so I can get everything in the newsletter and it still is readable.

David,

I have not seen your newsletter so I am not sure if you went with the digest (5.5" by 8.5" booklet) format. I have tried a lot of combinations of fonts and sizes. What I finally settled on was - a 10 pt Georgia font for the text and a 14 pt Franklin Gothic Book font for the headings. We have several older members that have problems reading and I have not heard any complaints from them.

Judy, Yes it is digest form. Thanks for the font tips.

I'm kind of stuck on the New Times Roman and Garmound. When I did the first issue, I used several sizes and asked at the meeting which artilces were easiest to to read and results were veried but favored 12 font size. Font styles didn't seem to make much difference.
