The Cameo comes with a variety of fonts pre-installed, but you can also download additional fonts if desired. Once you’ve chosen your font, it’s time to open up the Text tool in the software so that you can begin typing out your text.

When typing out your text, it’s important to consider how you want it to look once it is cut out by the machine. You can adjust things like size, kerning (the space between letters), tracking (the space between words), and line spacing (the space between lines). Play around with different settings until you get the look that you want.

Once your text is sized and formatted correctly, it’s time to decide where on your project you would like it placed. You can use the mouse or move arrows on the keyboard to move around the design area until it is positioned exactly where you want it.

Finally, when everything looks just right it’s time to send your design over to the cutting machine! Simply click “Send To Silhouette” and watch as your design comes to life!
