You don't need to use Inkscape for the wordbook letters.
Open SCAL and using the shapes already in SCAL take a square or rectangle, and then find a font you like, type the letter, weld the letter and the square, size them to what you want and make sure the square and letter join together and then cut.

Hopefully, you won't get too confused with this file. I made it a Library Shape file so you click on Save, and then save it at this address (just copy and paste into the Windows Address bar):

C:\Program Files\Craft Edge\Sure Cuts A Lot\Library

Hopefully, you saved the program in the default directory that SCAL creates when you install.

Before you open the file, set the font size to 7.5 and everything should be proportional, including the letters. Just go to shapes, click on the shape you want to cut and cut. I did notice that the longer set of letter (DAN) are just a tad over the right edge, so you will need to move the right edge in to fit.

Any questions, PM me.
