Hello everyone. I am a new user of Enroute 4 Pro. I have a Gerber Sabre 408 that I have been using for 9 years with Gerber Artpath and recently started using Enroute. My past experience has made the transition somewhat smooth with one exception. I will try my best to describe, please excuse my verbal shortcomings.

When creating a job with a textured background (such as a sandblasted wood grain effect) and smoothed flat faced raised text, what is the best method for cleaning or smoothing the returns of the text without cutting into the textured background?

Thanks in advance for any and all replies! I look forward to sharing ideas with all of you!

Bryan,

The return sides of the text would be be cut first and then the texture applied to the background area while using the text outline as a mask. Is this what you are looking to do??
