Got my first order for a few dozen Ear Savers. I was reluctant about the pointed outside corners till I saw the fit of the whole sheet. And thanks to my local Habitat For Humanity store I got some 4"x8" 1/8" mirrored acrylic blanks, six for a dollar. So this will bedazzle up my sister’s department.
But the detail that really impressed me is the improved speed by use of a vector score-line typeface. Does anyone know if any of the typefaces included in the new interface are score-fonts vs the usual engrave-fonts?
Most of the fonts can be scored - in fact, I don’t know if any can’t be. Of course, they give you an outline so you might need to either lower the power or increase speed, and choose a font that gives a readable result when scored (many don’t).
Sorry I was not clearer: Yes I know that any vector typeface can have its perimeter/outline scored. What I mean are fonts available in the new interface that are designed to be written with a single score, like the Ear Savers design uses? (Hence your point about readability.)
Just posting an update for any other post readers that I found a single-line “engravers” multiple fonts set at dafont.comforum thread using these contributed links:
I just used the last OTF link provided since I was setting in Illustrator on Mac. Worked beautifully for fulfilling a customization request for an Ear Savers print-out request GF sent on to me.
