Alex Key Master	You can invert only the shapes you add or the shapes from the geometric category. But you can add the swirly heart shape as a custom shape and then invert it. Here is how to do it: - Copy the swirly heart image url to the clipboard - Add the first tile in the shapes section and paste the copied url into the image link field - Invert the shape Also you can download the image and invert / edit it any other image editor and then use it as your word cloud's custom shape.

Alex Key Master	Unfortunately there is no way it can be fixed from Tagul side. Tagul produces valid SVG files according to the standards. I suggest you to contact the Cricut Design Space support and ask them to fix the issue. Edited 13 Feb, 2017 07:14

Alex Key Master	Hi Bonnie, First of all could you please go to contact form and advise your email so I could contact you? Once you do this I'll send you the sample SVG file so you could try it in Cricut Design Space yourself.

Alex Key Master	Hi Gabster, there is no such thing as color calibration on Tagul. Since the colors are OK on your screen, therefore you need to color calibrate either your screen or your printer.

Alex Key Master	I suggest you to find an image of paw patrol in the Internet, and then add use it as your word cloud shape by clicking on the first tile in the Shapes section. Please note that since you don't have the copywrite for paw patrol images, therefore you most likely can't use the resulted word clouds commercially.

Alex Key Master	Could you please send the SVG file you downloaded to support email so I could check what is wrong there?

Alex Key Master	Hi Lorraine, there are fonts that looks like hand drawing like "Alex Brush Regular", "Briep Medium", "Calligraffitty Regular", etc. Just choose the one you like in the Fonts section and visualize your word cloud.

Alex Key Master	dbaxter2709, the problem is that real photos are not well suited for Tagul word clouds. The image you used is quite complex (has a lot of small details) and it is very hard to fill it with words in a way it looks pretty. The best shapes for Tagul are cliparts that have have less details. Anyway to improve your word cloud image I suggest you to increase the amount of words placed. To achieve this move the "define" slider for "Words amount" parameter in the "Layout" section to the most right position and re-visualize your word cloud. You can also try changing the layout to "Horizontal / Vertical".

Alex Key Master	gems300585, the umbilical cord is too thin to be filled with horizontal layout. I suggest you to change the layout to "Horizontal / Vertical" or "Random" and visualize your word cloud.

Alex Key Master	You need to find the font file (in the Internet for example) and then add it to your word cloud by clicking on the first row in the Fonts section.
