Speaking of widths, where depth is not a concern and I don't want to change the width of a bunch of lines. I'll use a different bit then is what is specified. To make a font slightly wider, I'll specify a V60 bit and use a V90 bit. To make a font slightly narrower, I'll specify a V90 bit, but use a V60 bit.

If you read through the post you will see that this has already been mentioned, yes it can work but there are also drawbacks to using this particular method :lol: :lol:
