How to Make the LetterMat/TTF Drops Cut on Another Layer

How to Make the LetterMat/TTF Drops Cut on Another Layer

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

  • The True Type Font (TTF) is an additional source of fonts, separate from LetterMats, that can be loaded into Designer to Cut, Deboss, or Pen.

  • Note: TTFs have not been tested by Wizard and results may vary.

    • Feel free to experiment!

  • NOTE: Make sure that the font you want to use will cut the desired text correctly at the size selected before taking the time to make it two layers.

  • Make sure you are selecting letters that contain Drops, otherwise, nothing will happen.

  • The LetterMat/TTF can be Penned and Debossed much smaller than it can be cut.

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.

The True Type Font (TTF) is an additional source of fonts, separate from LetterMats, that can be loaded into Designer to Cut, Deboss, or Pen.

The True Type Font (TTF) format was created to work between both Apple (Mac) and Microsoft (Windows) and could be deciphered by most printers by default. The TTFs contain the mathematical outlines of each character in the font.

The True Type Fonts are located in the /Windows/Fonts directory.

Note: TTFs have not been tested by Wizard and results may vary. Feel free to experiment.
