Formatting

You can use the Colors... and Layout... options on the Format menu to change the colors and appearance of the word search puzzle and solution. Any changes that you make will be reflected in the on-screen preview, as well as in the puzzles that you eventually print.
  • When you click Colors..., the following dialog box will be displayed:

    Colors in Word Search Printer

    • The settings in the Puzzle group effect the colors used for the puzzle:

      • Background Color is the color used as the background for each of the squares containing a letter.
      • Unused Squares is the color used for those squares which are not used for letters (set using the Shape... option on the Puzzle menu, which we discussed previously).
      • Border Color is the color used for the border of the puzzle.
      • Text Color is the color used for letters in the puzzle.

    • The settings in the Solution group effect the colors used for the solution:

      • Background Color is the color used as the background for each of the squares containing a letter.
      • Unused Squares is the color used for those squares which are not used for letters (set using the Shape... option on the Puzzle menu, which we discussed previously).
      • Border Color is the color used for the border of the solution.
      • Answer Text Color is the color used for those letters which are part of one of the hidden words.
      • Text Color is the color used for those letters which are not one of the hidden words.
      • Answer Ring Color is the color used to ring the hidden words.
      • Answer Highlight is the color used to highlight the hidden words.

    Please note: If you use colors, and print to a black and white printer, your printer will be still be black and white! So, in this case, the final results, may not appear exactly as shown in the screen previews.

  • When you click Layout..., the following dialog box will be displayed:

    Layout in Word Search Printer

    • Header allows you to choose the header text used on printed pages.

    • The Print Puzzle checkbox, allows you to choose whether printing will include the puzzle (checked) or not (unchecked).

    • The Print Word List checkbox, allows you to choose whether printing will include the word list (checked) or not (unchecked).

    • The Print Solution checkbox, allows you to choose whether printing will include the solution (checked) or not (unchecked).

    • Footer allows you to chose the footer text used on printed pages. The same footer text is also used when copying the puzzle or solution to the clipboard.
