Diamond Monogram Font: Harold’s Two- and Three-Letter Input Rules

Harold’s Monograms includes distinct Black and White Diamond resources for two- and three-letter compositions. Harold Lohner’s original instructions document the system. This guide applies to those specific resources, not a universal keyboard method for every product called Diamond Monogram. Decide the initial count and intended letter order before choosing a font style.

For a three-letter resource, the instructions place the left initial in lowercase and the center initial in uppercase. The right initial uses a separate number-and-symbol chart: for example, C is at 3. Thus ABC can be entered as aB3, or ?aB3 with the optional outside ring. Keep the plain initials beside that encoded string. Typing aBc by analogy with a different monogram family is not the documented right-letter mapping here.

The original instructions finish a two-letter composition after the second letter. They also document a one-letter arrangement using the optional ring and blank left and right positions. Follow the chart for the selected resource rather than deleting a visible letter and assuming its space disappears. Inspect the complete mark at the intended size and retain the font’s full name. The homepage’s portable Unicode styles substitute characters; they do not turn the mapped numbers and punctuation into Harold’s diamond glyphs or supply an embroidery stitch file.
