How can my font be a dashed or dotted character?

[Jill]

I'm trying to type the word OBEY but need it to be either dashed or dotted so
my kids can trace this or connect the dots. Can this be done or Word or
Publisher?

Not unless you have a font that has characters already in the format I use
D'Nealian (sp?) but it isn't free. I have it somewhere (I don't have it
installed at the moment) you could try asking in alt.binaries.fonts.

Use the autoshape, hand write the word obey with the scribble tool, select it, open
the line dialog, more lines, select one of the dashes (in this case dot-dash would be
best with a .5 weight).
You can experiment with WordArt.
