Try right clicking on the font file and click “install for all users”

Erica Martin commented on the post, DIY Organizing Labels 7 years, 1 month ago
Shrinking the grey label is what you are trying to do. The, once you get it shrunk down to the size you want, you add the stroke (hold shift and click white). If this isn’t working, can you record a video of what seems to be happening? You can email me at [email protected]

Hi Karen, you would do all the exact same steps. The only thing different is that you would upload to Silhouette Studio instead of Design Space. π

So glad you enjoyed it! Any of the files included in the commercial license library come with the commercial license. There are some sticker and 3D files mixed in there too.

It looks like they recently got rid of this menu – sorry about that!

I really liked this tutorial but found the arrow movement too fast and often got lost and had to rewind. You are good, but I’m not there yet lol.
-
I’ll keep that in mind for future videos π If you click the little settings icon in the bottom right there should be a setting to slow down the video to like 0.5x speed. It may make my voice sound funny haha but you could do that.
-
-
Thanks so much Erica! I gave it a try and you are right you do sound funny lol. Works somewhat.
-
Haha you’re welcome!

-
Loved the tutorial Erica. Would love to see more of these.
-
Great feedback! More to come in the future π

-
Thank You

I love these type of turtorials, would love to see more of them.
Not sure what I’m doing wrong, but once I have the ice cream drips on the outline of the ice cream I select both path -> union, the drips disappear. What am I doing wrong?
-
Did you convert the outline to a path with Path > Stroke to Path before doing the Union?
-
-
When I upload to Design Space I get βThe uploaded SVG contained the following items that are not supported: Text elements. Import anyway?
I hit continue and everything looks good on the screen. The design seems fine on my canvas and the layers all look good. Any idea why I get the message and if it might cause issues when cutting? Anything I should be doing in Inkscape to prevent it?-
Hi there, I would select all, ungroup everything, and do Path > Object to Path to just ensure everything is converted. If it uploads fine though it shouldn’t be a problem to just ignore the error code.

These are amazing. This is my favorite part. I watch you and then try to do it from memory so that I’m really learning. Jenn

I love that method and glad you’re enjoying these!

It’s the same concept as in this lesson https://members.svgandme.com/topic/text-glyphs/ but this is on a Mac since that’s what I have. Here are step by step written instructions for using Character Map for a PC http://www.nikkiinstitchescraftacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/How-To-Use-The-Samantha-Font-On-A-PC.pdf

awesome thank you

i’m guessing we can do this same thing using capture for images – is that exactly the same or is there a lesson for that?
-
Some of my grandmother’s recipes are on recipe cards with lines. What’s a simpler tip for that?

We all love dafont.com but…
Did you know that it has a goldmine of graphics that you probably didn’t even know about and are so easy to instantly incorporate into your designs?!

-
Great resource. Love it and can’t wait to try. Thankks
-
How cool is that. I don’t see the link to the tutorial on using the character map. Where do I find that

Make sure everything is ungrouped and you are only selecting two items when you do the difference. Feel free to email me if still having trouble.

Erica Martin commented on the post, How to Make Mandalas in Inkscape 7 years, 2 months ago
Hi there! You would just save as a SVG and then upload into DS. There is a video in the course on this process and a checklist in the Inkscape course workbook to help. Let me know if you run into any specific problems.
