? on what font
Is there a way to tell what font is being used in inkscape?i downloaded a svg file that was renamed and it needs some ajusting
Re: ? on what font
Once a font has been converted to an outline, it is no longer a font, but a piece of artwork.
There are websites that can identify fonts by uploading a picture. Can you post a picture so we can take a look? We all use enough fonts here, so one of us might know the name.

Re: ? on what font
That is very easy to do in Ink. You make your background pattern and your letter. There are some dingbats that would work for the pattern.rolo wrote:TODD!!! How do you do that?!?! I have to know....
Assuming you used a font for both, convert both to Path
If you used more than one dingbat for the pattern, use Path/Union
Place the letter where you want it cut from the pattern
Select the pattern and the letter
Then Path/Intersection.

Re: ? on what font
You have a blackout with jagged edges? If you knew what the font was, you might be able to get the letter the same size. It might be easier to shape it using the nodes, or use the bezier tool or one of the other shape tools to fill in the missing edges. Then select all of the pieces and Path/Union.

NEVER MIND I FOUND OUT WHAT FONT.THANKS
Re: ? on what font
Ok, I did it, but there is no defined edge, like Todd's. The edge is open. Is there a certain font I should use?
Thanks for all your help!!
