Having trouble vcarving

[brian]

I'm trying to vcarve in a font that looks like its hand written.When I click on the centreline button It tells me one or more lines intersect.All handwriting intersects.How does one get around this??

Can you post a screen shots? That would help.

Brian, We have run into this also and found the best way around it is to un-group the text, then choose the "odd" letters in each word,(1,3,5...), then group them, select the other letters, group them, and make two different toolpaths. Not the easiest I'm sure, but it works. James

Hi Brian,

What software are you using?

Thanks James and Joe.
Don't know why I didn't think of that.Sometimes the simplest problems need someone else to look at it
