Introduction

Introduction

  • The letters in the various LetterMats all contain the specific characteristics associated to the specific font. Some of the letters are Single line, and some are Outlines.

The letters are formed with Single Lines, not drawn as the outlines of shapes. Single Line LetterMat fonts can only be Debossed or drawn with the Pen.

The Outline LetterMat fonts display the shapes of the letters as outlines with only a slight distinction between the thin and thick strokes.

The LetterMat™ fonts are specialized fonts designed specifically for the Wizard FrameShop software.

Single Line Fonts: The letters are formed with Single Lines, not drawn as the outlines of shapes. Single line fonts can only be Debossed or drawn with the Pen.

Outline Fonts: The Outline fonts display the shapes of the letters as outlines with only a slight distinction between the thin and thick strokes. These fonts can be Debossed, Penned or Cut.

Mat Designs are complete mat designs containing openings and can contain decorative or thematic elements to be cut/applied on the CMC created in the Design Editor and Visualization.

Mat Design Example

  • Even with all the decorative elements of the individual fonts, captions can easily be Deboss/Penned smaller than they can be cut, but there may be a few spacing problems that require attention.

Debossing or Drawing with the Pen?

  • The LetterMats in these collections are set to Deboss using the Thin cartridge. Optionally, you can change it to use either of the other Debossing cartridges or even the Pen cartridge. These tips will be helpful for all LetterMat, not just the LetterMat in this collection.
