Following on from my recent video in which I showed you how to download and install the new Brother font converter app. I thought I would show you how you can save a font alphabet using the converter with SNC Canvas.
The font I used is this Black Rose available from dafont.com

Hope you like it.
Brother have given us a link in SNC Canvas to a font converter app.
In this video I show you where to find it and how to install it, I use a Mac but the steps should be similar for a windows computer.
This little app lets you create text using the fonts installed on your computer, once you have your basic text and save it, it saves as a SNC cutting file.
These are not fonts that you can install in canvas, this is just a way of letting you make cutting files from the fonts on your computer with your ScanNCut.
I don’t know if there is a bug in the font converter but I explain it all in the video.
I hope you find the video helpful, as there is a little knack to making the text work, especially if you want to weld letters together.

Yesterday Brother added a new design tab into SNC Canvas which appears to be pre designed shaped cards and embellishments, it looks as though these designs will be available for purchase at some point in the future.
I know not everyone could see this tab yesterday from the discussions I read so in this video I thought I would give you a quick look at what will be available for the people who cannot see this additional tab at the moment.
To be perfectly honest I don’t think there is anything here at the moment that you cannot make yourself using the many techniques Ive shown you all in my video tutorials on my Youtube channel.
However, I can see that the designs may be helpful if you need a quick project or you are an absolute beginner to electronic die cutting with the SNC.
Here are a couple of screen shots of Pattern designs 1 & 2
I had to make them small to be able to get them all in one shot for you, but you will see them better in my video.
