Hello All,

I am looking for a font program I can down load I need my letters to all connect and be cursive writing. I know I could GOOGLE it but you would have a better idea of what I am looking for. thanks Karl

Not sure exactly what you're trying to do, but if you have a regular cursive font that aren't connecting, you can Kern the letters. Put your curser between the letters and hold down the ALT button and tap your left arrow. That will nudge the letters to the left until they are touching.

okay now i am really getting frustrated I went to dafont and looked at the fonts I down loaded the "ball park" font but now I am trying to figure out how to connect the center of the "o's" and inside of the e's do I just have to free hand each letter thanks

What I do is draw a little square which will be your bridge to the center of the letters. Put the bridges in place and do a union. In order to do a union, you'll have to convert the text to curves. From there you can try Union. If that doesn't work, you'll have to Break Apart (covered in the Working With Text section of the Inkscape class) then recombine the individual letters.

 

Hope this helps. Let me know if you're still having trouble.
