yes,it can. In the box that tha arrow is pointing to, you have more than one option on how you want the outline. Play with it some.

ok :'( i have been, i guess i will keep trying, but hers what i'm trying to do. the shirts r black, the letters gold.

so what i'm trying to do is make it look two color with an outline. does it make sense? like gold, outline black, with a thicker outline gold.

Sheila it's in there where John said, it's the next one down from where his arrow is.  That spaces it out, then the one his arrow is pointing to is the thickness.  I'm cutting now or I'd post a pic.

Just take the text or graphic and click on it the select it.  Go to Effect, outline then in the design central box that comes up you change those numbers to what distance you want the outline to be away from the text/graphic and change the other to the thickness of the outline.  Look at my pic I post and look at the numbers in the design central box.

I think you still need to weld, cause like Mortal mentioned if you don't you may get double cuts!

Nope you don't have to weld.  It already is welded or I guess grouped.
