Oh ok - great. Just wanted to be sure.
Yes they did a great job on the webinar. And you are right - fonts can be problematic - not all are "cutter friendly". It doesn't mean they can't be cut, but may need some cleaning up.
You might find it useful to view your fonts in the node format and see just how many nodes you have and if you can simplify them. I do that pretty consistently unless I am cutting a font I have used before. Some cut so well (thank goodness!) You can go to Path>Simplify to quickly see how many you have, and based on the threshold you have set, how many you can reduce - and you can do that repeatedly. You just don't want to do that so much that you lose the integrity of the shape.
So glad you had success. And user error is ok - we have all been there . But that's one of the best ways to learn - at least for me. When I make a mistake and work through it, I tend to remember that better than anything else!
