UPTOWN 0 Posted November 20, 2008 I just ordered the Refine w/ Flexi starter and should be here in a few days. I currently run a Roland cutter with Signcut which works well but the plotter is getting old and its time for an upgrade, plus signcut wont let me update to a newer version without buying the whole thing. my question is in Signcut I would be able to have text and put a border or shadow from the program. I've read that Flexi does not have this option so most have been doing the borders on inkscape. What do you guys do for borders? I tried using inkscape but the borders are uneven and doesn't seem to give me the option to tweak the shadows or outlines. your help is greatly appreciated.

darkdan 3 Posted November 20, 2008 1.) Duplicate your text (copy/paste) 2.) Arrange > Convert to Outlines 3.) Click the fill/stroke editor. Click stroke. Increase stroke size to whatever looks good. 4.) Arrange > Convert Stroke To Outlines 5.) Weld Then just order it to the back and you'll see your original text over it.
