These Queensland Font Alphabet Desk Strips are editable and can be personalised to include your students name on them with your choice of font. They feature every letter of the alphabet with a cute graphic to correspond to each letter.
Please note: The alphabet font is QLD Beginners font for Queensland teachers in the Australian classroom - If you wish to use a different font, I have an editable version of this available in my store
To edit: If the product description stipulates that the file is editable, it will be editable only in Microsoft PowerPoint. You will need to have access to Microsoft Powerpoint to be able to type in your text. You can access a free trial here.
Absolutely love your work! It is beautiful, easy to edit to meet my own requirements and takes the hard work out of having to design it myself, which saves me sooo much of my own personal time. THANK YOU!

I pay my respects to Elders past, present and emerging. I celebrate the stories, culture and traditions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders of all communities who also work and live on this land.

If you have time, could you maybe try if the font is shown with your Word?
Maybe this font has some kind of incompatibility with Word. It is recognized in word, just not shown in the fonts, while it is shown fully (whole group) in Adobe Indesign for example.
Thank you for your time.
