    Default "Something is askew"

    Hey experts,
    I am running into a problem suddenly. I have been using XAra 3d6 for about 2 weeks. At first everything worked perfectly, but now after I import the .wmf then apply the text face something is out of alignment.
    No matter how I change the skew of the text, the size of the text face...everything that I can think of (considering i'm a nOOb), but nothing works.

    Help please

    I had to rename your file to open it for a start. I had a bit of trouble trying to fit the texture to the outline as my extrusion option is not working as it should but its the best I can do. I removed the shadow you also have a wee dot lower down the picture but it doesn't affect the presentation .

    Here's an animated gif of batman, imported into Xtreme where the stray spots were covered up. [I can't figure out how to just attach the larger gif file without it displaying here, so shrunk it down. It can be resized in Xtreme.]

    Pipe Guy,

    Welcome. By "Text Face" do you mean texture?

    So is there a way I could have just attached the animated gif instead of having it play?

    Sorry...your right. The text face texture. I have all the files that were generated in the steps used to get to the end results.

    I use Photoshop for editing/xtracting the pics to PNG files.
    Then Illustrator to create the WMF file.
    Then Xara 3d6

    Is there better software options that I can use? I think it is a setting in Illustrator that skews the PNG file when I convert it to WMF.
