Why Lofter? That just adds vertices and faces that you don't need! Just
Create/Text in the Shaper, then Create/Object/Get Shape directly into the
Editor! No need to Loft at all! The resulting letters will be absolutely flat
2-D objects (DO remember to say "Yes" to the Cap!).
Just use animator pro to view and select your fonts.
use the text selection and view your pfb's, write down the names of the ones
you like!, use them on a 1024×768 screen towrite out the name of the font ,
save as a gif then load into the viewer in 3ds or as a background and look at
them right in the shaper!
