    Which Font - using pen

    Hi everyone, Not been on for a while (slap my wrists), but I need some help please. Which font does everone use when they want to write on card but don't want an outline. I am after a filled in font - if you know what I mean.

    I though you would just click the outline button off but that only lets you then print text.

    Thanks, Shirley

    If you want it to look like a single line, then the thin script/handwriting type fonts are usually best, but as Tina says the Robo has to write all fonts as outlines, because it treats them the same as cut lines but just using the pen instead of the blade. If you are using Design Master though, I believe there is an option to fill an area with the pen.

    Sometimes it's just a matter of testing to see what works best. Look through previous posts on fonts too as everyone has a different favourite, and there have been lots of discussions on this topic.
