Forever and Always SCUT file

Post by agcsmom »

I was playing with some of the new features and put this together. Thought I would share as I have gotten several great files from here. The font I used is Aquarelle - if I understand what others have said - you need to have that on your computer for this to cut correctly for you.

Thanks to SVG Cuts for the tutorials on the new features.

That is a great file. If you have 2.010, you should be able to convert the font to outlines and that way we won't need the font to use the file.

I can't seem to do it now. I must have needed to do it before I did all the joining and unioning etc.... Next time I will do it!

If you used Union instead of weld, it does it automatically. You can double check this by clicking on the letters with the node tool. If the nodes appear, it has been converted and is now a Path rather than a font. When you convert the text to outlines it seems like it needs to be ungrouped before you can use the node tool though.
