You can purchase the license for Font Creator separate from Maestro. At least we did, for our Illustrator Extreme tier. |

DGML Illustrator Extreme 16.5.3.7660
Was manually spacing letters. Normal function when spacing rightwards using Shift+Click and Dragging. Alternated to Ctrl+Click and dragging caused the letters to the left to disappear. Ctrl+Z Undo function did not resolve issue. When Ctrl+Z was pressed repeatedly to undo further backwards, the app crashed and shutdown. I'm aware that I can just delete the segment and start over, the only issue is that I already got approval for this sizing from the customer, and now they're gone and I have to hope I can guess close enough to where they won't notice the difference.

It was an Old Embroidery Font. 3D Block. I was moving the second D in DAVIDSON, and was individually spacing out the letters as I went. I know I moved the 'i' and the N on the outer edges sore sure. Anything that was a straight vertical letter I probably moved to make it look uniform. It was all on a single line. Ctrl+z didn't undo it, it remained invisible. I also sent it to my machine thinking that it was just a visualization problem, but it transferred exactly as on the canvas.
Unfortunately I deleted it, but will try to maintain those if I have anymore bug reports. |

DG12 used to give me the actual segments, and not just the individual letters as whole pieces, I don't know where that changed between DG12 then and DG16 now. My goal was to delete individual stitches between the letter "i" and it's dot, that are hardcoded into the font. Every time I delete them, they just regenerate. My clients can see those stitches and they consider it a low quality embroidery. Because of that, for enough of my customers, this eliminates many fonts as options.

Oh wow! Thank you for that, this actually solved another problem/missing feature I was having since DG12. I never noticed that button pop up there. |
