monogram help needed...

I've tried contacting IDOOriginals and no one as returned my email or anything and it has been over 2 months now...so I'm hopping a LIW bride can help with what I had in mind. It's really simple but for some reason I dont' know how to do it...

I want to do our monogram so that our first initials are connecting (to show that two shall become one...I know cheesy but cute). Our initials are 'N' and 'K'
It would look basically just the N and the K joining together so you couldn't see the N without the K and vice versa

NK but with a pretty font :)

Can anyone help please??
I tried using Photoshop but am CLUELESS

Try using the font 'Calligrapher'. It's a little blocky, but it sounds like you're looking for a font in which the upstroke of the N and the downstroke of the K overlap. You'll need to use 2 separate text boxes and then overlap them. Once you do that, you can change your fonts until you find one that's prettier than Calligrapher.

I use printmaster for stuff like this.

Chaucer kind of works. The problem is that all the 'pretty fonts' have curlicues which overlap either one letter or the other and cut it off. Check out dafont.com - they'll let you see the entire alphabet so you'll know right off the bat if it's going to mesh.
