Current version information for vLetter and Schoolhouse Fonts software

All vLetter and Schoolhouse Fonts software products are currently available in the following versions for Windows and Macintosh.


now for Windows VistaVersion 4.6 for Windows XP and Windows Vista®
release date: 8 August 2008


- vLetter now has full support in both Windows XP and Windows Vista.
- The vLetter Toolbar for Microsoft Word has improved functionality in Windows Vista, so the Handwriting and Plain Text buttons do not cause Word to crash.
- The vLetterWriter can send handwritten emails in Windows Vista (some restrictions may still apply depending on your ISP).
- The SigSoft Handwriter is included for converting text to handwriting in other programs, such as Excel and WordPad.

Are there any known issues with version 4.6?

Microsoft Word 2007 has a bug that sometimes prevents the Signature from being correctly inserted the first time. Word has trouble with inserting high-ascii text characters (where the signature resides) and then changing the font used to display those characters. This bug exists even if you create a new macro and assign a Microsoft font to be used.
The work-around: If your signature inserts as "junk" the first time, simply hit Ctrl-Z to Undo, then hit the Signature button again. If you leave Word open while you work, and close only the documents, then this error disappears, but it can appear again the next time you start Word.
Note: This bug does not affect fonts that use capital letters (low-ascii text) to type signatures or logos.


Version 5.1 for Macintosh OSX 10.3.5 or later
release date: 16 March 2006


- vLetter now has full support in OSX Universal for Intel-based Macs.
- The vLetter Handwriter converts plain text to handwriting fonts in most programs, and can create a graphic of handwritten notes to send via email.
- vLetter is no longer available via the Services menu, as many programs do not support that function.
