Would like to know how to do that! It would be great to present naming in that manner.

I agree!

Coincidentally I was talking to Oliver of DNW last Sunday and was able to compliment the photographer on her excellent work.

Petre : Name engraved in upper case capitals, rest impressed. On QSA roll he is shown with 2 initials only : maybe family "corrected" this.

I don't recall having seem many medals to officers of the ILI. This from Michael Kaplan:

QSA to Capt W.H.G. FURNIVALL Impl L.I.
5 Clasps: Tugela Heights, Relief of Ladysmith, Transvaal; Laing’s Nek and SA 01 (engraved naming)
British War Medal to Lieut W.H.G. Furnivall R.A.F. (Impressed naming)
