could they be too close together?

cute font, but I have not seen that happen before.

have you tried those letters in other words to see if it works?

what is the name of the font? if all else fails, it could be traced in inkscape. if you can tell me where to find the font, I can make it for you real quick if you don't "inkscape".

Thanks for offering some suggestions... I REALLY appreciate it. I did the alphabet and it's the same letters that keep giving me issues: j, l, n, s and w. And I tried individually and with spaces in between - no luck.

I've been searching and searching the SCAL site for the current software version thinking I may need to update but I can't find anything...

Anyone know the current version? (and where I can find on the site???) I'm running 1.015.


Thanks again!

That seems to be a common bug. The usual suggestion is to use the next smaller shadow size. Another thing to try is to view the preview and see if it shows up there correctly. The last suggestion would be to make your files in Inkscape (or AI) and import them into SCAL.

I did it in inkscape.

typed the text: path: object to path: path: outset (as many times as you like): path: union

then save as an svg file.

import to scal.
