How to create clever directional signs for event
G
Guest
Open Word to a blank Landscape page, type the message, select Centre
alignment button on the Toolbar and in Page Setup set Centre for Vertical
alignment. Now select the text and use Ctrl+] to increase the font until the
desired size is reached. Not that symbols such as right/left/up/down arrows
can be found in the Symbols or Windings font sets.
Alternatively, you will find the most common international signs in the Clip
Art section - though it is quite beyond me why simple words such as 'Gents'
or 'Disabled' that sufficed for centuries should be changed for pictures of
a man or a wheelchair. Perhaps it is for the visually challenged.

Go to Insert - Picture - Autoshapes. You will get most of the directional
signs.

For people who don't speak English maybe...?
If you were in Hungary, would you walk through the door marked:
"Férfi" or the one that said "Nói" ???!

True. But do they have gender specific lavatories in Hungary?
In Chichester (where I live), they are building new toilet blocks in the
centre and one of them is designated as Uni Sex. I am wondering what
picture/sign they will put up to convey this to visiting Hungarians?

Umm... yes!
They even have running water and electricity is most parts now you know!!
I think you're probably taking the pi** here eh??
However, if it was me designing the signs(for Chichester), I'd put both a
'standard' Man and Woman picture on the door. I think most people would
'get' that, even a Hungarian...
Cheers,
Chris.

No joke: they are building a block of new toilets and one of them is
definitely assigned as Uni Sex. I just can't wait to see people's reactions.

Is that unisex toilet BLOCK, as in more than one cubicle? SO you could
finish up sitting 'next door' to a member of the opposite sex??
Not unheard of though. Earlier this year, in Amsterdam, I went for a meal on
a very trendy boat/ship resturant/nightclub (called somthing like 'Supper
Club' AFAIKR).
Anyway, the toilets on there were unisex, and most bizarely, the uninals
were at the front and the cubicles and sinks at the back, so you had the
women walking behind you as you were relieving yourself. Quite odd...
