Alex Key Master	Hi Louise74, there is the "shape transparency" slider in the "Colors and Animations" section that controls the background silhouette intensity. Move the slider to the most left position to remove the background silhouette completely.

Alex Key Master	1) All the words are in place in the visualized image 2) It is important to have 600x600 px resolution and more for your shape image. After that there is no difference as Tagul downsizes the image to 600x600 px. Regarding the font. You can use any font you like that supports Cyrillic characters. Also you can add your own font by clicking on the first row in the Fonts section.

Alex Key Master	I've created 3 word clouds in your account according to the different rating values you provided. BTW next time you need to import more than 999 words, you can open your browser console (F12) and type TAGS_MAX_AMOUNT = 5000 command and then do the import.

Alex Key Master	Now there is another problem. The encoding seems to be wrong as I can't read the russian names. Which encoding is used in the text?

Alex Key Master	You need your font to be in .otf or .ttf format. To upload it click on the first row in the Fonts section.

Alex Key Master	Hi Max, actually Tagul is not very well suited for your needs because: 1) Even if you manage to overcome 64kb limitation Tagul will import only 999 words as it is the defined limit 2) We could raise the limit on our side but then (I am afraid) you will face with another issue. The "use size column from word data" option won't provide you the very accurate results. I mean that the actual sizes for words still won't exactly reflect the actual values in the size column. It is because Tagul visualizing algorithm tries to fit the word cloud shape sacrificing the words size accuracy. Therefore Tagul is not well suited for scientific purposes. I recommend you to play with 999 words and see whether it is an issue for you or not. If it is not an issue please send the data to the support email and I'll think what we can do.
