Thread: add/change fonts

  1. Default add/change fonts

    Hi all,

    I am wanting to add/change size of my fonts for when I do my carvewright. Is there a way to add/change fonts? I appreciate everyone's help.

    Thanks

    Speaking of fonts. I am trying to add the British pound £ to my centerline text. It shows on the text pop-up but not on the board. Has anyone made this work?

    To add fonts you open settings and then open the control panel.
    There is a font folder there which you open. Then open the font and drag it into the font folder and windows will register it and it will appear in your text editor. As far as changing the size you do that on your design software by making the box around it bigger or smaller. Hope this helps.

    IF you share projects with someone with text, they must have the same font loaded on their computer too... IF it is missing on the second computer it will show up on the TEXT Font list looking different between 2 exhisting fonts. In the early years it would subsitute and you would not know... ChrisAlb and I did some Signs together He the Design and ME cut them... I showed up with the cut signs and he said... "You changed the font?"... Didn't have a clue... He carved them over... Learned something that day....

    So any font on your computer can be used in Designer... Like posted above, you must load or install the new font on your computer.

    FYI, Some fonts with fancy letters you will need to put a space bar space before and after the text to let the whole letter work... OR it cuts off part of the extended stroke.
