Collect a few words worth keeping
Start with Thank you, Dedication, Wisdom and New chapter, then add the words people associate with working together. The tree-shaped example gives you a starting layout for a retirement gift. A familiar saying or a small shared memory can make the finished print feel specific to the person receiving it.
For a group gift, ask colleagues for a brief word or phrase. Look for details they would happily write in a farewell card: generous mentor, a favorite team expression or a project they remember fondly. Keep job titles and dates in a separate caption if they need to be read in order.
Find the balance between thanks and what comes next
Choose a main message, then give it a little more space with a higher weight. You can merge repeated suggestions from colleagues or keep each contribution separate. Read the list as a whole before generating; a warm farewell does not need to include every suggestion to express the group's appreciation.

Read it through before printing
- Choose words that fit the recipient's own plans and interests.
- Confirm the spelling of names and any dates you include.
- Check whether longer phrases such as Time to explore fit in the tree.
- Put the full farewell message in a note beside the artwork.
Prepare a portrait print
The example uses A4 proportions, 210 × 297 mm. Check the smallest words at the size you intend to print and leave enough space for a frame or mount. For a print shop, ask which file format and margins they need. A fixed-size PDF can help you describe the intended result clearly.
Download the project JSON before trying another seed or a wider canvas. Those changes can move the words and affect which ones fit, so read the report for each version. Keep the chosen project with the final artwork, ready for any last spelling correction or an extra copy of the gift.
