Frequently asked questions
- Will it match the lettering already on the stone exactly?
- Only if the stone was cut in a very similar style. Monumize compares the photo with every font it offers and tells you when the match is only the closest style. Always check the outline on your own photo, and the 1:1 PDF against the stone, before cutting.
- Can I use Parisienne for commercial cutting?
- Yes. Parisienne is published under the SIL Open Font License 1.1, which allows commercial use. The cut files you download are lettering outlines made with it.
