How to make a music crossword?
Now I'll tell you a little about how I did this miracle. helped me crossword software entitled Crossword Creator. It is free, it is very easy to find it on the Internet and install it (it weighs about 20 MB - that is, a little). Before I entered this program, I tried a number of others. This one seemed the best to me.
As you can see, I didn’t include so many guessing words in my musical crossword puzzle - only 27. You can use any number of words. The list of necessary words is simply entered into the window of the program, which itself then distributes them vertically and horizontally and crosses them beautifully.
We just have to choose the design style, and then download the finished crossword puzzle. Moreover, you can download several necessary files at once: a crossword without answers, it is also with filled cells, a list of all answers, and a list of questions. True, here, the questions are taken from different dictionaries, so it is most likely that the questionnaire will have to be adjusted. For the example of a musical crossword puzzle that I showed you, I wrote the questions by hand.
Now a very important point. How to display the crossword itself in a graphic file? There is no separate export function to other formats in the Crossword Creator program. In fact, we just copy the image and then paste it wherever we want. It is best to paste it into some kind of graphics editor: Photoshop, for example. The easiest is in standard Paint, or you can directly in Word, in the same file where you have questions.
One technical moment. After the picture is inserted into the graphics editor, press "Save as", then enter the name and ( important!) select the format. The fact is that in Paint, by default, it is bitmap bmp, and Photoshop has its own format, but it is most profitable for us to save the picture in JPEG format, and we select it.
Conclusion.
Your music crossword is ready. Thank you for attention. If you find this material “useful for society”, please send it to “Contact”, “My World” or somewhere else - there are buttons for this right under this text. See you soon!
