In the past I have made posters that use dates and I have cut out the numbers and letters and glued them on. I would like to just use the markers to do so but want a solid image of the letter verses just the outline. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Depending on the size that you're working with, you may just have to color in the lines since the machine is only designed to cut the outline. I used Calligraphy cartridge for my son's Graduation Display board title at approx. 1.1 inches and it looks solid. I don't know how much larger you can go with that before it starts to look outlined. Also the higher the pressure is set, it will make your line thicker & create a more solid looking letter also.
Hope that helps you out a little.
