I have a few designs I want to purchase from lettering delights but I'm not sure how I would cut them on my cricut. I'm new to scal and have not cut much with the program. Some of the designs I'm looking at buying are...db fruit bowl-doodlebat font, db gingerbread cookied-doodlebat font, and db boo ya-doodlebat font.
My question is, how would I cut these items on my cricut? Are the designs already broke up or do I need to download inkskape to break the images up so I can cut them?

Re: lettering delights question
Those all look to be doodlebat fonts - I have the fruit one. You would use them just like they are a normal font (to get them into SCAL) from there you would need to break them apart. I did a different doodlebat font - I broke it apart - put the pieces in different layers and cut them that way. HTH!

Re: lettering delights question
You have picked three that are pretty much ready to go. If you want to break into layers to cut different colors you can do that in SCAL2. Type in the character, select break apart, then drag the pieces to different parts of the mat or different layers.
