We received our glowforge over the weekend and working to learn the ins and outs of its operations. When you were working with the heritage brewing co logo , is there any way that the program can place an outline around the logo that matches the shape ? The reason I am asking is that with the glowforge black lines are etched while red lines are cut thru. If a fitted border line could be done that would be awsome !

Hey there! There is a decoration effect over in the Text Effects panel on the left where you can cut a letter in half and make it two different colors. But you cannot make individual letters different colors if they are part of the same text box.
I want to get into the sign making industry , but I still want to hand paint the signs. Of course this would help cut design time down and showing a client and rendition to keep their interests, I was wondering if this could be also used the cut down production time. Could the designs created given like an inch border around the design be loaded loaded into a cnc program to load more than one design to be cut out of a sheet of whatever material?
