    Having A few problems with Signlab and was wondering can anyone help me.

    I just bought a 21" monitor, and photshop is working fine with it. However, when I type into the font browser on signlab and "OK" it, my text is displayed as squares, with smaller squares inside them.

    If I weld it though, the text comes back.

    Does anyone know how I can rectify this? It has only started since I installed my big monitor!!

    Regards

    Neil

    In the “VIEW” menu you have “show text outlines” selected. You need to turn that off. The reason you can see it when you weld is because it’s no longer text. It’s nothing to do with your new monitor 🙂

    something like that can happen in corel

    sometimes linked with bad typefaces.. or too many of them

    or your not using Windows 2000 or XP

    It’s in version 5.0 Pete, think the option was ommited from version 7.0 onwards…..

    That is definately what is happening though 😀

    Happy New Year 😀 😀 😀

    Thanks very much guys,

    I must have checked outlines on it by accident. I would never have found that problem, I spent hours messing with screen resolution…way off track!!

    Thanks again.

    Regards
