Problem cutting fonts

[jfaulconer]

Hello

I was wondering if anyone was having the same problem I am having when cutting fonts.
I was making my daughters name with a font called Creampuff, ( it has happened with others too) I made the name and cut it with the cricut, but when I went to make the shadow for it, parts of the letters turned out to be like what I call lighting strikes, just small pointed areas. Some of the letters didn't show up at all. Is there a way to keep this from happening? I do appreciate your opinion.

Thanks
Jodi

I think it is a space issue with shadows.
Try making the shadow number one smaller (it defaults to 3 I think so make that 2) and see if that fixes the problem.
Sometimes I think it is easier to make the shadow first then copy it and change the copy to normal.
