Letraset!!! If you love pre-computer age graphic design, watch Briar Levit's documentary Graphic Means. It's streaming on many platforms and it is sheer delight.

Kylläpä tuli nuoruus mieleen. Silloin oli kunnollista ja ties vaikka jossain laatioiden kätköissä olisi vielä muutama fossiloitunut letraset ja rasteriarkki tallessa 😄

I still have a box of about 50 various sheets!
Buy a sheet, and immediately go to a nearby self-serve copy store & illegally run off a dozen copies. Letraset included fewer vowels on a sheet to force you to buy a another to finish a job. Having copies, you could knife in a replacement vowel.
