Hi, it is so good to have the TEXT function available, congratulations!  
I’m also using Shapr for waterjet cut, thus a FONT dedicated to cut will be more than welcome 🙂  
avoiding « O » to look like a hole, similar for A, B, D … Thanks in advance

Try all of the stencil fonts. I am on iPad and there are a lot available by default.

Thank you for your help. On my ipad there were no stencil fonts. I did install ifont app and did manage to install some. Any idea which app you did install on your ipad to get automatically those fonts?
