One thing I've noticed about swift is that when I emboss directly from
Word, wide paper is automatically chosen, and that is not good for me
because I use narrow paper.

SWIFT is a nifty Word template that helps you map Word styles to DBT
styles and actually lets you create a document in Word and emboss it
directly from there, with DBT doing the translation in the background. 

 

You can also bring a Word document directly into DBT for editing.  

 

It is likely installed on your system.  If you use Word 2007, check the
add-ins item on the ribbon. There will be a button labeled DBT, which
brings up its options.

I have to admit I haven't tried very hard to find the answer to this
myself so if someone could indulge me by answering this, I'd appreciate
it.  What exactly is SWIFT?  I'm getting the impression you use it to
bring documents into DBT from Word, but I don't really understand how
you actually install it or use it.  I saw reference to installing it
when I installed 10.7 but I couldn't tell if it really installed!
