Text will not bold

I am new to glowforge.

I am trying to use text. When I add my text i can see it on my project. When i try to change my text such as the font size or bold it nothing happens. I have used chrome and microsoft edge with the same result. I have cleard my cashe and both browsers are up to date. I do not understand this. I just want to make a bold text and then curve it so i can place it on a circle. is this something to do with my aura. thanks for any input.

I’d recommend learning and using inkscape. It has excellent text handling and can do anything you’d need.

There’s a bit of a learning curve but there are lots of resources. Here are a couple links:

Inkscape manual -

And a specific tutorial about curving text:

Once you know your way around inscape this is actually a fast and easy process. The Glowforge design tools are comparatively very simple and incomplete.
