Enter the first name. Can use text box already provided. Use font of your own choice, however letters must be connected so it can cut out name as one piece.

Use multiple text boxes for letters that are not joined already.

For Example - when you type Emily, the E will not be touching any of the other letters, so it should have its own text box. “mily” will all be touching and so are in their own text box.
