How to change the letter font size of the box text on your cards
If you find that your box text is a little too small or a little too large for the card boxes, you can fine-tune the size of the letters before printing.
For the box text: Under the "1. Design" tab, select the "Boxes" tab, and look for the slider called "Box text font size adjustment". You can move this slider up (larger text) or down (smaller text), while watching the "Box" Preview on the right to see what size works best.
For the call sheet text: Under the "1. Design" tab, select the "Call" tab, and look for the slider called "Call sheet font size adjustment". You can move this slider up (larger text) or down (smaller text), while watching either "Call Sheet" Preview on the right to see what size works best.
How to split long box text into 2 lines
A box item will automatically wrap to multiple lines if it is too long using the font size you chose. However, it wraps at letter boundaries, not necessarily the word or hyphen boundaries you might want. There is a way to tell Bingo Genie exactly where you want to break the box item. You can enter a '\' (back-slash) character on a box item line to force a line-break, splitting it into multiple lines where you want.
How to quickly make several decks that have similar settings
You may want to design a card layout and use it as a basic "template" for all future decks. Perhaps you always make 5x5 decks with a free space, and always want a subtitle of "Mr. Brown's Biology Class".
Simply set up the settings the way you want, and choose "Save Default Settings" from the "Bingo Genie" menu. From now on, any new documents you create will start out with those default settings. This does not affect any existing documents you have already saved, since they now keep their own settings.
How to remove the Free box on the cards
To create Bingo cards where every box is filled, and there is no "Free" box, simply click the "1. Design" tab, then the "Boxes" tab under that. Then turn off the checkbox entitled "Add a 'Free' box on the card", and make your cards. Remember that without this box used on your cards, you will need another box item of your own in order to make the cards.
