Need some help for a pattern for my dad
Dad tasked me with making a pattern of his brand. I am absolutely having a brain lock. I tried to go into pattern editor to create it, and hit a roadblock. I was able to create an mpc of what it needs to look like. What am I doing wrong? Can someone help me here? Thank you all!

If you are looking for help, Posting a image would help those using the basic software.
Using Designer 1.187, STL importer, Center line, conforming vectors, scanning probe/PE, and the ROCK chuck.

Not sure what is going on with this file. I couldn't open the attachment by blhutchins either. The "brand" is a capital H. On the left upright of the H a backward capital F is attached. On the right upright of the H, a P is attached. SO, what you see is the H, with the two horizontal lines of the capital F to the left (backwards) and the loop of the P to the right of the H...if that makes sense. Boy, for a simple project, this thing has turned into a mess. I appreciate that you guys have helped. Thanks!

Tadperry,
Would this MPC file (Ver. 1 Designer) be what you are trying to achieve. It is made with inverted Arial Text, overlapped and engraved 1/4" into the board.

Is this what you are looking for?Originally Posted by tadperry
I made a pattern and put the "F" and "P" in the background so you can see the "H" - hope this helps. BJB

That's exactly it BJ. Thank you all so much for your help! I was able to save it and get it to him and he is greatly appreciative!

Okay, so I showed this to dad and he wanted to know if it could be made with thinner lines...like just a thin line instead of block letters? I really appreciate the help! Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to do this myself (and create a pattern)? That is the hitch for me, creating the actual pattern. Thanks again!
