Any program that allows you to upload custom fonts and create text will allow you to use the basic characters, but we recommend using an OpenType-enabled program to take full advantage of all of the powerful features we've built into Loenna.
You'll find the best OpenType feature support in professional page-layout applications like Adobe InDesign, Adobe Illustrator, and Quark Xpress.
Some programs, such as Microsoft PowerPoint, Silhouette Studio or Cricut Design Space, DO NOT offer OpenType support. Instead, you'll want to refer to the following question for how to insert additional characters into your design.
If you do not have access to a program that allows you to access alternate characters from within the program, Loenna is PUA (Private Use Area) encoded, which means all characters can be accessed through Font Book (Mac) or Character Maps (Windows) for free. For additional help (and screenshots!) this is a great article.
If you have questions about a specific program, please contact us.
