    Default Choosing Fonts

    The deliclate serifs and thick and thin scripts letters just beg to be rendered with a V carve. When I do raised letters, the broader stroked fonts seem to really stand alone. Font selection is an art by it's self.

    Often when I have set a title, it realy pays off to convert the font to curves, or paths, and node edit the width or stroke to give it that really custom look.

    When carving a deliclate script, I usually set the z too shallow on purpose. If the bit is just a little too deep, it destroys the quality of deliclate letters.
