Cutting with Lobster

Start with a 3.5-inch label. The compact letters save space, but inspect the small openings inside a and e before scaling down.

Keep compact lettering easy to weed

  1. Measure the flat area of the object and start with a short name at 3.5 inches.
  2. Check that the centers of a, b and e remain open. Avoid tightening spacing so far that a neighboring stroke fills a hole.
  3. Upload the SVG at the displayed width and test a single decal before repeating it on several items.

Works with your cutting app

Upload the outlined SVG to Cricut Design Space or Silhouette Studio Designer Edition and above. No font installation is needed. Confirm the finished dimensions in the app before cutting.

Silhouette Studio Basic cannot open SVG. Download the transparent PNG instead, open it in Studio, then use the Trace panel to create cut lines. Check the inner letter holes and set the intended width after tracing.

See Silhouette’s Basic Edition and tracing guide and SVG import requirements.

Check the fine details

A fine-detail warning means some strokes may be too narrow for a clean cut. Try a larger width or a bolder font, and test a scrap of your actual material. The estimate is a guide, not a guarantee.

Weld joins overlapping shapes but does not bridge gaps. Keep detached dots and separate words aligned with transfer tape; cardstock projects may need a backing added in your cutting app.

For iron-on, mirror in your cutting app when the material requires it. These downloads are not mirrored.

Questions about Lobster

Does a bolder font always cut better at tiny sizes?

No. Lobster has substantial strokes but also small enclosed spaces. Make sure those spaces survive your final size and material test.

Can I use Lobster for a long surname?

Yes, within the 40-character limit. Increase the width for a long name rather than squeezing it into a short label and losing the inner details.
