Hi all

I am trying to cut a font that is too thin in places, so I need to make it thicker.

I have tried the pen thickness tool and when I can change it so it looks thicker, it still cuts the same thinness

any help appreciated

cheers
Very Happy

Convert text to path then add an outline .02-.05 depending on the
thickness you want, then delete the original font.

Thanks heaps for the reply (they are rare here!)

I worked out another way, by changing the pen thickness then clicking 'shape>WYSWYG' I'm loving that little button!

Will try yours too, it may work better, thanks again Very Happy Very Happy
