[Boatanchors] Free Drawing Program for QSL's?

[Meir Ben-Dror WF2U]

The Microsoft program within the Office suit for presentations is MS Powerpoint.

Actually, MS Office doesn’t have to cost a lot of money. I just bought 4 licensed copies of the latest version, Office 365 on eBay. These come from large integrators who buy licenses by the thousands for next to nothing from Microsoft to install them on new computers. They sell the excess cheap. It cost me $7.98 a copy, got the download site by email. The software was already integrated with the license code, so all I had to do log into the Microsoft site (username and password were also given in the email). I know the software is legitimate, because Microsoft automatically alerts me to all the updates.

On the other hand, QSLmaker is free.

Hi Bill,

I don't use Windows but I thought I remembered "Paint" doing text boxes 
(among other things). If you want some kind of "presentation" program 
you can use the one in Libre Office or Open Office. They both have 
versions that run on Windows computers. I used to be familiar but have 
forgotten the name of Microsoft's slide show presentation software. Has 
it really been that long? Yes. Decades. Microsoft wants big buck$ for 
Office. The other choices are *free*. And compatible.

73,
