If you're not sure how to access the special font characters in Silhouette Studio, this tutorial will walk you through accessing the extras and alternative font characters.
If you're looking for a commercial script font for stencils, Alana gives you a great start. As you can see many letters with counters don't fully close which means you won't have stencil 'fall out,' as I like to call it. For the letters that still have counters, but fully close, such as the 'd', you can use this Silhouette hack to make the font stencil-friendly.
Here's a closer look at the other fonts also included in this limited time Laura Worthington Pack.
The best part is the pack of four script fonts is only $19 - that's just two dollars more than what the most basic Samantha version sells for by itself.

Do I need to use the Character Map with these fonts like I have to do with the Samantha font?
ReplyDeleteYes you do. Just make sure you install the Open Type version of the font. I don't believe the special characters work with the True Type.
DeleteBought them! I couldn't resist...these are just too beautiful.Thank you for the awesome tutorial on how to access the special font characters. The instructions were clear and super easy to follow. I just wish whoever created the Character Map would make that window bigger...very hard on the eyes!
ReplyDeleteI agree with character map being hard to read. It's rough on the eyes!
