FAQ

Why does my SVG upload as a single layer?

Design Space often flattens grouped layers upon upload for organization. To work with individual elements, select the design and use the "Ungroup" function in Design Space.

Can I change the text in the design?

The text in this "The catfather svg" design is provided as outlines rather than editable type. While you cannot directly edit the font, you can usually delete existing text elements and add your own text using fonts available in your design software.

Does this work with the free version of Silhouette Studio?

Yes, the included DXF file is compatible with the free Basic Edition of Silhouette Studio. To use the SVG file, you will need to upgrade to Silhouette Studio Designer Edition or higher.

Can I get a refund on a digital file?

All sales of digital files are final. However, if you encounter a corrupted or damaged file, please contact us within 30 days of purchase for a replacement or refund.

Can I use this design for print-on-demand?

Yes, this design is suitable for print-on-demand services, but requires the POD Extended License. For POD use, you must upload the flattened PNG file, never the raw SVG, to your chosen platform.
