justifying text
In cut2d can text be created that is justified so the text is aligned on left and right?

Re: justifying text
No, but an easy workaround is to type the text in you favorite word processor using Justify and save the results as a PDF. You can them import the PDF file using File/Import/Import Vectors

Re: justifying text
Thanks, I will give that a try !
Re: justifying text
I'm not sure if Cut2D has the same editing tools as Aspire, but in Aspire, you can draw a line or rectangle and by using the Align Objects Icons, you can justify objects that way.
Re: justifying text
Actually Mr. Newcomb's solution worked well for my needs. I did the document on Open Office using justify and then saved it as a pdf. Came out perfect. The only thing that would be better would be if Open Office had a single line font. The lettering is small so single line text would be much better.

Re: justifying text
These fonts will work in Open Office - http://www.mrrace.com/other software_Fonts/ - you might need to do a little bit of editing in Cut2D when you import the PDF as these types of font have overlapping lines to create the single line effect.
Re: justifying text
Thank you Adrian, that is EXACTLY what I needed. The fonts work perfectly with Open Office and cut2d.
