GraphxNMore 282 Posted January 15, 2015 I know this has been asked a hundred times, but I can't find the threads. I use AI CS6 to arch text, as SCALP absolutely suck for it. Even SCAL4P's text on arch is terrible. So I draw up my design in AI, save as AI, EPS and even SVG; but SCALP loses the text in every format. I can save as jepg and trace in scalp, but lose detail of course. I can't get the export plugin to load in AI either. So I try Corel5..... Plugin installed correctly. I exported in SCALP, no text there either. Any ideas? USCutter won't answer the phone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wildgoose 4,200 Posted January 15, 2015 You will be needing to expand the text before exporting. Expand Appearance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted January 15, 2015 USCutter does not do support for SCALP, That is Craftedge.com And they also have their own forum for future problems. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted January 16, 2015 isn't it kind of sad when the most common answer on a software is to download another software that works better and hasn't been updated in 7+ years. just an observation 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cal 393 Posted January 16, 2015 I think Wildgoose gave you the answer. I did not see that you created outlines and expanded after typing. Cal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GraphxNMore 282 Posted January 16, 2015 Skeeter, USCutter DOES support issues like this. There's a plugin download on their page. I created a ticket awhile back and they told me to download it, and if I still had trouble to call them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GraphxNMore 282 Posted January 16, 2015 I've expanded, ungrouped.... Everything. Can't get text from either into scalp OR Inkscape. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GraphxNMore 282 Posted January 16, 2015 I ungrouped and deleted the path for the text and it worked. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DCMoney 91 Posted January 16, 2015 You guys are making this harder than it has to be plus it was already answered, but to reiterate. Once you finish your design, click on the text you have created, right click and hit, create outline. Save Open SCALP Import, done. Notice I only selected one of the text boxes to convert. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
