Lorenne Font...
|
christitch <nckrause@...>
Hi, Jim. I was trying out fonts for felt Christmas stockings in MBX's Easy Design and noticed a Lorenne font on page 302 of the MBX Onscreen Manual (showing the packaged fonts). It doesn't seem to be coming up in Easy Design, however...have I just overlooked it somehow?

It is a really good looking font, and it is NOT in the fonts included with the program. I've reported it and hopefully we'll see it in the first update to MBX. Of course they could also just remove it from the manual, which would be tragic!

I found a TTF font by that name I am wondering if it is
the same font, and it could be manually digitized

The TTF version appears to be the same font, and could probably be used with Digitizer MBX. It has the ability to created digitized lettering from TrueType fonts. However this font has a lot of thin details, which often don't work well. TrueType fonts are actually tiny computer programs that tell the computer how to draw each letter. This does not always translate well into stitches, especially when there are a lot of thin lines.

I find that as well in Pfaff 5D and font engine in
embird will only do the simplest of fonts.. but manually it could be
quite pretty.

Thanks for checking out the Lorenne Font situation for me, Jim (and the

digitizing suggestion, Missi). It IS pretty and I really hope they include it when they update the MBX software, but I have lots of other lovely fonts to play with in the new machine in the meantime (and lots in the other lettering programs I have). Back to my mini felt Christmas stockings. I love, love, love the size of the new hoops. The entire felt square fits into the GR hoop, and I'll be able to embroider three at once. I am a happy camper, with or without the Lorenne font! ;) Chris
