    Inkspace seemed so confusing. But damn, this made it so much easier. Perfect directions. You better be a teacher in real life.

    First I want to say thank you so much all of your tutorials are amazing! Also, even after I did these steps when I uploaded it into design space it says "The uploaded SVG contained the following items that are not supported: Auto flow text." However when I click continue it all shows up. Thanks!

    I followed this to a T with curved text I created in Inkscape. When I uploaded the SVG into DS it says it does not support the font even though it said it converted my file to DS. Nothing shows up on my canvas. I want to cut vinyl to put on a plate. HELP!!!

    I really enjoy and learn alot from your videos. There is some info I cannot find on the internet but I bet you would know the answer. Are there any writing fonts on the internet for the cricut machine? I mean a writing font not a cut font that looks like writing. Cricut has fonts they call writing fonts but they just make bubble letters, which I do not like.

  • @jerritedford5550

    Thank you for your videos, I would be lost without them! Although I followed you step by step in the video many, many times my .svg files are still showing as black squares in my download files. They are there and usable but I'm wondering if there's a solution? Thank you for any help you can be

  • @pattybumbera9050
    @pattybumbera9050 6 лет назад

    Thank you so much this video was very helpful. I just started an Etsy account and want to sell sayings in svg. I used the information from your video to make one and save it as an svg. When I uploaded it to Cricut design space to test it out before putting in my store it came up with an error. I did some research on google and a lot of the post said that images and text made in Inkscape don’t Transfer to Cricut design space. Unfortunately they give no advise for how to fix the problem or other software to use instead of Inkscape. I want to make sure that I am selling a quality product and not something that is going to cause my customers difficulty. Do you have any advise or suggestions to help with my text problem. I have photoshop and have been using Inkscape a little bit. Thank you for your help I look forward to hearing from you.

    I need help. Trying to create a saying, 6x1" long and have my lock set on that measurement, and trying to export it as a PNG file. Went through everything as far as putting it on a path, checking the nodes, ungrouping, union the path to weld it, etc and then exporting it as a PNG file. But when I go to open it up in Print Shop, it has not kept its size, its like half the size, and enlarging it only makes it fuzzy. What am I doing wrong??!!!

  • @kimmay7253
    @kimmay7253 7 лет назад

    This process is to make the font a "cut" in design space? This will not just print or write? I'm looking on how to print or write cursive fonts in design space. Thank you for this though!

    Hello. Could you please show/explain how to make the numbers to be the same size as the text? I'm trying to make PSN Tags to upload on GT Sport, but can't figure out why the numbers type smaller than the text. eg: His-Name_is247420
    Thank you.

    I just created an outline for a font in Inkscape. When I follow your directions for putting text into Cricut Design Space, it looks as though it has loaded only an outline (as I created on Inkscape) but it loads onto the workspace screen as filled in font! Its so weird! Have you ever heard of this or do you have advice?

    @slwood3411 3 года назад

    HELP!! I did exactly what you said but when I upload the text into CDS, it says that text elements are not supported. I created the text, clicked on it and did object to path. I can see that each letter is separate nodes, but still gives me an error but if I hit "ok anyway" it does upload it and seems to be fine. But I can't create and sell svg files that give a text element error upon upload. Did I do something wrong?

    I tried this with a script font and it looks fine when I save it in Inkscape. It uploads to DS with no errors but once in DS the font is much thicker. Not sure what I'm doing wrong?

      What version of Inkscape are you using? You can find it in Help / About.

    • @pennsylvaniaflutist
      @pennsylvaniaflutist 7 лет назад

      Ok I installed the older version and same issue. So I decided to actually cut the design out on cardstock and it's totally fine. It must just be how it shows up in DS perhaps has something to do with what browser? I'm not sure but good to know! Thanks so much Troy. Yesterday I started a free trial of Illustrator and started watching their tutorials and could not follow them... and I have a teaching degree! Your videos are awesome. :-)

  • @bonniebritton3438

    Can I use this font to sell an svg commercially?

    • @TroyTube
      @TroyTube  2 года назад +1

      Any font you buy or download should have a license agreement that details how it can be used. Commercial license can sometimes mean it's OK to make and sell physical goods or digital goods but sometimes there are additional license details that separate physical and digital goods so make sure you read and understand the license agreement for any font or image. Hope that helps.
