I created a new font and when I try to make a pattern out of it, there seems to be a lot of space between the letters. Is there any way to modify that?
Thank you for your suggestion but unfortunately I can't reduce the size because it would cut off part of some of the letters.
I did figure it out though. I used a different text box for each letter instead of using one big text box for the entire or phrase that I wanted to stitch. Since I used a different text box for each letter then I could position each text box relative to the other letters. I hope that makes sense but I thought I'd post that I figured it out in case anyone else has the problem.
Thanks for trying to help me figure it out!!

I've not worked with fonts but I suggest you edit the font and try to reduce the width of each letter.
That was a good choice but there may have been another possibility, although maybe a bit more cumbersome. Since a stitched font is just stitches, and it appears that the message, whether one entire message or letter by letter is just "objects", then maybe you could have merged the objects into the background which makes them just stitches and then mark boxes of each one and cut to a new place. In that sense, you could make one "box" out of all but the first letter and move that and then cut it by one letter ... That way you would make sure they would all stay in the right relative place.
