It is possible to download a Word template for one of the forms, the certificate that is handed to the couple. I think there is also proprietary software available for celebrants, but I haven't found anything that is open and free. The other problem is that one of the forms is bigger than A4 which makes it difficult to use in most printers- I have an HP 8550 which will take up to A3. It is possible that they have changed this form in the last couple of years as it's been a while since I've had to order that particular one which has remained unchanged for a couple of decades. -- God bless you, Keith Bates www.new-life.org.au If you don't have a reason to live JESUS IS THE ANSWER!
