Thank you ...great video but I am interested in drawing the fonts on my scan n cut. Is there a way to make the fonts come out as solid words instead of outlined ones when drawing please?
I have cricut expression and brother scanNcut 350.. Heres my question and hopefully I know how to word it for it to make sense. I want to make a mural for my daughters wall.. Say I wanted to make one large very long branch, can I start the cut, once it fills the page press stop, add a new sheet of vinyl & press start (will it start cutting where it left off or will it start all over?
Thanks for all the tutorials! I just got my machine 3 days ago. I was wondering if you know how to correct the tracing feature somehow in canvas (maybe you've already done a video on this that you could direct me to). I do all my designing in photoshop, but each time I go to convert my files in canvas by tracing, the program outlines pretty much everything except the font. The font converter is cool and all, but if I've created a total design already, there isn't much that I need that font converter for. Do you know of any solution for that? Perhaps I'm just doing it wrong?
I need an iPad version. Why are Brother so behind in doing this? I want to be able to sit on a train or a park bench using my ipad and be able to access the font available on my ipad. This is not possible using the browser version on my ipad. Only on my desktop - which isn't very portable is it. I have sat here for hours trying to work this out and come to the conclusion that I just quit. Anyone know another way?
Julie is this TTF converter available for a CM250 machine? When I log into CanvasWorkspace, I do not see any option to download this converter in the Brother Solutions Center. Help ???
Hello Julie, thankyou for your answer, I live in Italy . But I'm from PERU. I don't write very well English. I bought started kit embossing . And I usually use paperboard of 220 g/m2. I just want to be sure.
Did I miss the part on how you got the loops back in your "e" after you welded it together? I did my name, Natalie, and when I welded it lost the loops in both "a's" and the "e".
I enjoy your videos but, how do you get the scan n cut program on the computer to transfer to the scan n cut machine? I'm still learning, please help me!!!!!
Julia what I’m trying to figure out with my scan n cut I want to scan the three pattern pieces for the Olson mask and save as a svg file so I can use my machine to cut pieces for me. I thought it was possible and appears it’s not I want to make more use of my scan n cut I want to learn to make cards! Please help
How do you get more than one line and group just one word when you transfer it to your Scan and cut? Such as " Let It" for the first line and Snow for the second?
Hi Julie, great video but for the life of me, I can't get the centers of letters such as e, a, k etc to be cut out. I thought I followed your tutorial to the letter but I'm always left with a solid 'e' or 'a'. I hope you can help because I've been sitting here for a couple of hours and it's driving me crazy.
I need to create a specific font to make stencils with NAMES and DATES that will fit on wine glasss. I can't make the font small enough to cut without ripping. Can you show us a video like this? (Sorry to be troublesome)
Could I write out the alphabet on my own style font on one piece of paper, scan it, save it, then use random letters I need or would I have to scan like A, then B, then C, ect.. Can I scan ABC, ect all at once & then on the mat spell out the name I want, like edit out the letters I don't need.. Ect? Does that make sense?
Hi Julie! i'm still trying to learn how to use the scan n cut2, but I would appreciate it if you could please tell me how to get my images from canvas to the machine wirelessly?.
Hi There, Go to the 'Using ScanNCut Type Coverter' tutorial on youtube by Julie Fei-fan Balzer. At the 4 minutes and 55 seconds point of the presentation, she shows you very briefly (blink and you'll miss it) how to do what you are asking. Hit the download button. A dialogue window will open with two icons. Click on the wireless transfer (the icon on the right) and you are there! I'm on a learning curve too. Just bought a scanncut CM 350. I am an airbrusher who is sick of cutting stencils by hand. Cheers, ArtofNoly
Hi Julie, you make the problem with the letter E look so easy but I have tried over and over to do the same thing and each time I weld it removes the centre. I keep rewinding your video and replaying to no avail. Help please.
I'd like to know how you get the same canvas you are using. I previously asked and was told go online to brother.com to activate my machine and get the canvas there. I did as you instructed, but still cannot find the canvas you are using. My version of snc canvas is just simple, I can't do any tasks you are doing. My canvas doesn't even look like your canvas. How do I update my version so I can do more tasks with the canvas?
I want to put a whole slogan onto the scan n cut, but do I have to do every word separately - as you have only shown one word, but that is pretty useless if we want to do more than one word or even three words at a time. Please help. I am using a CM 900 and also CM300 (I am in Scotland)
Hello i have a mac ,and when i go to the brother solution center and i want to download the converter it tells me that there is no app to open this file, what is everyone using? thanks

Have been trying different options,,,,,but need someone with more experience to guide me please,,thanks
Hi, Julie, I tried this and nothing work, also my scanNcut dx screen looks nothing quit like a few other screens I seen on youtube can you please help.
Hi Julie, I'm new to this world. Your videos are so helpful. I'm having issues with fonts that I'm trying to use. Is they are connected I get error Errso7. I can't understand the user manual. I've tried using all the functions and I just can't get it to work. Can you help me with this? I've seen a lot of people with issues with this in some of the facebook groups I'm in. I can send you pictures of what I'm talking about.
I want to use a font from my computer, make a memories saying, place it into a heart, print the saying onto the heart and cut out the heart. How can I do that?
Hi Julie. I am trying to use the converter on my computer and when I go to weld the letters together I get an error message saying cannot execute this operation with an open intersecting path. I am totally confused and frustrated and cannot work out what I am doing wrong. Do you have any suggestions
Has anyone been having any issues with the canvas site? It constantly locks up and says brother is not responding and it takes forever for it to complete an action when editing a project. I thought it was my computer so I had a tech check it out and he said it was a website error not my computer. I have noticed at certain times of the day it is worse. So if any of you are having this issue please let me know. Thanks

Please let me know if the machine on HSN can cut the Big mat 12 x 24 , please let me know because other people that have Scan & Cut said that it doesn't Not. please let me know before I purchase thank you
Brother Crafts USA im so frustrated.. I figured out how to unzip what I need but now I can't get it to transfer to the canvas.. I went on a free font site my scan n cut group told me about. I downloaded a couple fonts, unzipped them but when i open them its just a bunch of nonsense in the font that I chose.. Like "the brown fox jumped over the" then a bunch of random letters.. It don't give me an option to type my own words out.. Im so bummed. I really thought when I got this scanNcut 350 that id be able to figure all this stuff out & figured the only thing id have issues with would be just learning what settings and blade depth id need....but no! Ugh! I wish I knew someone personally & locally that could walk me through this
Your video is helpful, but you did not show the process of getting the inner cut or your letter E back. That's where I'm having the problem, all the inner cuts of the letters disappear. You say it's an easy fix but never say how to fix it.
I wish brother would make a wireless adapter for the older models . I don't have the finances to permit me to spend 500$ on a machine that was promised to never become obsolete and turn around and spend another 650$ a year and a half later to buy a new one. They also made the price point on the lesser models so low that no one would buy the original one used. Not happy
You were too fast in clicking and terminology. I couldn't see what you clicked on and you were just talking too fast as your clicking like we are computer specialists. Please redo another and actually slow down, show slowly where to click and why before moving on. I need to know this but I'm so confused. Its great you know this stuff like the back of your hand, but to some of us, thus is new, machine and canvas workspace...it is overwhelming. Love watching you, but please help us newbies
I am beyond "happy dancing" about this. Tried it already, and made a few items!! Y'all are the best!!
Oh you are soo BRILLIANT! Where would scan n cut and us be without you and your knowledge and tutorials? you make it look soo easy.
Thank you, Julie! I knew about this feature but didn't know how to use it. Love your videos -- so clear step by step. Keep up the good work. 🌹
This one deserves a double thumbs up. Great video. Thanks for sharing/teaching.
Julie thank you for showing what you can do all I want at moment is how do I get more than one word to print
AWESOME new feature!! Thanks for your Terrific Tutorial!! YOU SO ROCK!!
