Hi all,
I need to make some tshirts for my son's team
The name of the team has the letters in black and then outlined in white.
then below that is something else in white outline but then transparent in the middle.
Can someone please tell me who to do that. I have PSCS2 and 3

Also, anyone printed anything on to iron tshirt stuff and if so , how hwas it worked.
I got a new job which is great, but I haven't scrapped in so long

Use a "stroke" style, then reduce the "fill" of the text layer to 0%.
This will make the center transparent and leave the outline.

Haven't printed on iron-on paper yet, but as long as you follow the directions and remember to print it out mirror-image, you'll do great.

Thanks guys.. so that answers how to make an outline font.
If I want to make outline of white and fill with black.. can I get a hint on that too? Is it layers or something different?

There is no such thing as white ink for printers, so that isn't really possible to do.

good point.. but then lets pick red and black.. just trying to figure out how to make it two colors.

Hi -
type your text in the color of your choice eg red - if its an outline font as opposed to a solid font, you can fill it easily each letter with the paint bucket tool. Then just add your outline as described in the tutorial.
If thats not clear enough let me know and Ill try and whip up a tutorial for you quickly

Just leave the fill at 100% and add the stroke.
