why does the fonts keep touching when laying out?

[Jill Marie Welsh]

Have you converted to curves/break curve apart?
I do this in wireframe mode than kern by selecting the letter and any inside bits and also holding the CTRL key down when I move the letter.
Then I select all and combine.
I dunno…I am no expert with Corel!
Love…..Jill

Lee in Corel chose the node icon, and click on the lettering, this should give you a box beneath each letter. As you point to it, it will go black and you can drag the letter left or right, if you hold down the control key at the same time it should stay on the same level as the original text. I hope that makes sense.

Its called the shape tool in X3, its directly under the pick tool (the top arrow in the toolbar) its a little triangle with a line above it with a node on.
