XP- RSVP Fonts

Mom wants me to work on getting the invites & enclosures printed while I’m home over Thanksgiving and Christmas.  The one thing in my way is picking the stupid font, and the hardest part of that is the RSVP card.  All of them are readable when written in normal sentence case…just need to pick the best for the all CAPS. I’ve narrowed it down to these.  Tell me which is your favorite.

**I found many fonts at fontspace.com by googling "free wedding fonts."  On my Windows Vista PC, it download them to my computer's temp folder in a zip file.  I unzipped the files, and transferred them to a desktop folder.  Click on Start--Control Panel--Appearance and Personalization--Fonts.  Right Click--Install New Font.  Find the desktop folder--click on font folder--select all--install.  Repeat until all unzipped fonts are added.

    I don't see any difference in Chopin Script and Flaemische.
    Is it just me?

    wow...you're totally right.  I just looked at the original document and it shows a difference in the font selected, but there is zero difference in appearance.  Thanks for catching that!

    To me, the biggest thing to consider if you're doing all caps in a row is just how readable do you want it to be?  Is it a monogram, or is it words that the people need to be able to read?  I picked #1 if it needs to be readable.  If it's just a monogram or logo, I vote for the "Chopin" script.  Hope that helps... good luck with your decision!

    To me- they all look a bit hard to read and the "precious" font is out of control!
