Font for cutting small letters

Post by pstruff »

Hi all,

I need a font that would cut well at a 1/2 inch size using SCAL. Any suggestions?

Thanks

I am not sure that the Cricut can cut that small. All of the cartridges I have purchased say that 1" is the smallest. I have never had any luck with anything smaller.

I have cut letters that small in vinyl, but never in paper.

I am cutting on vinyl. So which is the best? I am making signs for trees in an arboretum so I'm not looking for anything fancy.

thanks again!

You will want something with fatter letters. I like Cooper Black. Because the letters are fatter, they tend to stay stuck to their backing better.

Todd, where have you been? I've been wondering about you. Did you take another vacation?
