Does anyone know if you can do text in back stitching with the text tool? The text I am doing is smaller and won't come out right in stitching.

I can do it by hand but would rather use the text tool if I can.

Thanks,

Aaron

The text tool assumes a given font. If no font (either true-type or stitched) is right for what you need, you either need to make your own font and use that or create the stitching manually.

I have a font that I already have on my PC. It's a true type font so the program recognizes it. The problem is that I'm doing it smaller so having it as stitches doesn't work. I was trying to do it as backstitching instead of stitches. This way I could get a lot more out of it. Does that make sense.

What makes sense and what's possible don't always coincide.

It boils down to the same thing -- if you can't make the font smaller, you have to do it manually or create a stitched font the size you need.
