Hi,
I have writen text in Coreldraw using a standard font (comic sans) and converted the file to illustrator format.
I then imported the file to moho and noticed lines splitting some of the letters.
The letters affected are any that have a completely joined section,for example: a b d e.

Zooming in on any of the lines shows that the section is not complete ie. it is split into two halves.
Why is this?
Can anyone give an explantion and/or a solution.[/img]

before export to ai, try to transform the text to curves in coreldraw (in spanish is organizar/convertir a curvas).

maybe this works.

If that doesn't work I remember something about a 'gsp' setting in Moho - maybe this is relevant?

Thanks for the suggestions guys,
Selgin, I've tried the 'text to curves' and a different font but neither made any difference, I still get the split letters.
Bupaje, sorry I'm not familiar enough with moho yet, can you expand on ´gsp´setting?
Regards,
Peter.

Sorry I was refering to the 'gap filling' option -the 'gsp' was a result of my big hands on this little keyboard. I haven't dealt with it but worth a try. Click on "Layer Settings" for your layer then go to the "Vectors" tab. See if clicking on or off "Gap Filling' helps.

Here is LM's explanation of that feature
