Adding monogram lettering
Monogramming fonts provide three sets of the
upper-case alpha characters. The first, known as
the ‘left set’, is designed to appear on the left side
of a monogram. The second, or ‘middle set’, is
designed for the middle position(s). And then there
is a ‘right set’. Each set is mapped to a specific set
of character equivalents in the alphabet. See
Monogram font mappings
for details.
To add monogram lettering
1
Click the
Monogramming
icon.
The
Monogramming
dialog opens.

Select the desired monogramming font.
3
Key in the letters comprising the monogram – it doesn’t
matter whether you enter characters in upper or lower
case. Any non-alpha characters are ignored.
4
Adjust letter height, width and spacing in the fields
provided.
5
Click
OK
.
A lettering object is created using the settings entered.
The left-most letter is replaced by its equivalent left
character – e.g. F is replaced by ‘Left F’. Similarly, the
right-most letter is replaced by its equivalent right
character – e.g. F is replaced by ‘Right F’. All other
letters are left unchanged.
