Work around on True Type Font Problems with DS+

[yetdy]

I have had problems with true type fonts in DS. One work around that I did was to type whatever fonts that I need in Coreldraw or whatever vector drawing software and convert everything to curves. Select and copy everything I need and paste in DS. Afterwhich I convert them all to stitches. It takes longer but at least it gets the job done. I think you got to have DS+ for this. Cost me more than buying the standard version but I think it is well worth the money I invested. If I am unhappy with what I see, I just convert from stitches to graphic and back to stitches again. There will be subtle changes but sometimes these changes makes the overall look of the digitized item better.

By the way, if you do not have any vector drawing software, you can save to jpeg and convert it in DS. It takes a lot of cleaning but still faster and easier to do than tracing everything.
