Word clouds and word searches

Two generators for the same raw material — a list of words that mean something to one family. A shaped word cloud, or a word-search grid with the names hidden in it and a key on the back.

8 words typeset in the brand serif.

Both solvers run here in the browser. Production adds shape masks, weighting and a rendered answer key.

01

Word clouds that respect a shape

A word cloud is only a gift if it has a silhouette — a heart, a state outline, a paw print, a number. The generator packs the customer's words into a mask from your library, weighting by the order or emphasis they set, and typesets with your brand fonts rather than a default sans.

Shape mask
Any silhouette from your image library.
Weighting
By list order, by an explicit weight, or uniform.
Brand typography
Uses your uploaded fonts and palette.

Word searches with a real solution

The grid generator hides each supplied word horizontally, vertically or diagonally, fills the remainder with plausible letters, and produces both the puzzle and the answer key. Merchants print the puzzle on the front and the key on the back or on the packaging insert.

Placement directions
Horizontal, vertical, diagonal, optionally reversed.
Answer key
Rendered as a second layer or a second mockup frame.
Grid size
Fixed, or grown automatically to fit the list.

Why this is niche, and how it differs

Both are classic gift formats that require typesetting an unknown number of unknown-length words at print resolution. Generic customizers hand you a text box and hope. These are solvers with layout rules, and — like every other generator here — they are layers inside your template, so the finished product looks like your brand rather than like a puzzle site.
