I am creating a logo for an NGO and it must contain the letter 'D'. They've required it to be similar to this one:       How do I go about making the circles follow the 'D'-shaped path? I know how to make it such that the circles are cut off, but my client doesn't want that. Any help is appreciated.

I am trying to get a series of shapes (rectangles) to follow a path (sine wave) that I made with the pen tool, but I have no clue how to do that or if it is possible.   I have tried warping a rectangle into the sine wave path, but it takes many different warped rectangles and it isn't smooth.  I thought  might work for rectangles, but it only works for text.

I've created a path with a stroke and a fill of the same color, and I'd like to remove the stroke while preserving the size/shape of the object. Is there a simple way to do this?  In other words, I'm looking for something like a "Stroke-and-Fill to Path"  The best solution that I have come up with so far is to use "Stroke To Path" and then delete all of the inner nodes.

Im not that good in illustrator but i followed other people answers here with almost the same problems but didn't help. So i want to cut out the stroke from the other 2 path-s. I already made a Outline stroke effect and the other fonts are shapes too but with pathfinder won't cut as is except because this effect cut the full shape not the stroke and yes only the stroke and that other 2 path is selected...  What make i wrong here ? Thank you for the answers.

I am currently working on converting my logo vectored as a SVG to a 3D model using the 2.72 version. I ran into a problem with my logo because it contains a black stroke and an orange stroke (see both images below), but currently all I have is the interior color of each shape. I was wondering whether or not there was a simple way to add in these strokes, and how exactly to go about creating the strokes. Thank you in advance community!

In mathematics, I sometimes encounter Gothic letters, I mean the letters $\mathfrak A, \mathfrak B, \mathfrak C, \mathfrak D, \dots, \mathfrak a, \mathfrak b, \mathfrak c, \mathfrak d, \dots$.  To get them in $\LaTeX$ one would use $\mathfrak{A}$ etc.  For example, in the book Model theory by Chang and Keisler, structures are denoted $\mathfrak A = (A, \dots)$, $\mathfrak B = (B, \dots)$ and so on.   I would like to know how to write this by hand.

How can I align 2 paths perfectly? No matter what I do I get a little space (gap between the 2 paths I create, and they are straight lines not as I saw in other questions with pixel problems)  An example:    Between every triangle is a little space, like in the example. It isn't obvious and it doesn't bother, but if I use the image (as an SVG or something) it is really obvious.

I am trying to creating a logo that resembles this one shown below, but I do not know the best way of going about it. I know of a fonts package that may be useful, but not sure how to overlay the letters on top of each as so. Would anyone know a neat way of accomplishing this?  Picture of Logo:

I'm using cycles and particles that form text. I've got every letter separated, and while the particles form the shape, it doesn't properly 'fit' the shape or cover all of the surface of the object, so it doesn't work properly for me.  I've already tried making another particle system on the same object, with more particles, but it looks weird...is there any solution to this?  Thanks in regard, I'll be waiting for a response.

How can I make a  have sharp and curved points? Like a zig-zag. And also being able to make more 'circular' parts too.  (I want to make fig 2, but I can only get to 1 by creating curves added with the E button.)

I'm currently working on a logo for a client. Here is the work in progress.   It seems obvious to me that the S should align with the line above. I feel that the best way of aligning it however is to align the bottom part of the S rather than the top curve, even thought the top curve does protrude more. See the following example   Also at the other end of the logo, the A I feel can do something similar, minimising the white space triangle at the end of the logo    The end result I think is more pleasing in its alignment   I feel that this is correct, but my client is questioning it. This alignment is a habit I have picked up during my career, so I haven't been formally taught this, in fact I can't remember where I picked this up.   Tell me, have I picked up a bad habit here? Is my client correct? If this is correct does this type of alignment have a name? Or is there an article somewhere I can refer my client to?

I created this logo for a client, and I now need to convert it into one color versions (all black/all white).   Because there are so many overlays of text and graphics, I am having issues changing it into one color without it becoming one big blob of unreadable text and graphics.   I am working in Illustrator CC 2018 and have tried all I can think of with compound paths and pathfinder options. I'm sure there's a way to accomplish what I need to, I just haven't found a way to get there. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions on how to make this work!  Logo:   Example of issues I'm running into: (The black lines are actually cut through to the background, they're not just black strokes.)      UPDATE  I have come along this far in the conversion. The last thing I'm stuck on is how to get the stroke around the text (what you see in black) to punch through to the background. I've been able to do this for the other graphics but am having trouble with the text itself. Any option I try in the pathfinder panel gives me unwanted results. What's the best way to achieve this?      UPDATE 1/8/18  I had left this project over the holidays, and when I came back to work on it today I finally figured out a way to "punch" the text through the various background items.  First, I selected the letter and added an offset path around it. I then copied and pasted [Cmd + F] that offset path a particular number of times (equal to however many background items that letter touched).   I selected one copy of that letter's offset path, added one background piece to the selection [by holding the Shift key and using the Direct Selection tool], then clicked the Minus Front option in the Pathfinder window. I repeated this process for each of that letter's offset paths and the items it touched, and then for all of the letters that needed to have the "punched through" stroke effect.   This achieved what I needed!

I created a path:    Inside that path I created several more paths:    and group those on separate layer.  Inside paths doesn’t have any fill but have a stroke of 1.  Since I want that stroke to be open (or transparent. I don’t know the exact term, I want the stroke line to show the color beneath), I selected the stroke and chose Object &gt; Flatten Transparency. Then Selecting both, I chose Pathfinder &gt; Minus Front.  Result:     Now I want the above design to top of this:    like    and want to create a outer stroke for my star and I want that stroke line to be open (like the paths within star)  I've been beating my head with this for the last 48 hours but I couldn't find where I'm doing it wrong. If it's any help, this design is for a t-shirt design experiment.   Can anyone help me with this? Your help much appreciated.  Edit:  I want the result to be:      I want the stroke of the star to be punched through the (square) path and the compound path to create hollow space around the star (to show the background color). Thanks in advance.

I'm looking for the symbol that's similar to \cdot in math mode, but instead of a small circle, it's a square. Like this:

I would like to insert the below mathematical symbol, it looks like a big Delta but different. Is there command to obtain a similar shape?

I would like to make a venn diagram with Tikz, but instead of labeling A, B or C each circle I'd like to give some other names. However, having read the manual I've changed their labels but each new word doesn't fit in each shape.  My code so far is:  \documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{article} \usepackage[english,greek]{babel} \usepackage{ucs}  \usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc} \usepackage{venndiagram} \begin{document} \begin{venndiagram3sets}[labelA={υλικά}, labelB={καταναλωτικά}, labelC={διαρκή}, labelABC={ΑΑΑΒΒΒΨΨΦΦΔ}] \fillACapBCapC \end{venndiagram3sets} \end{document}   My diagram I'd like to be like:   How can I change how big a circle can be?

I've used "//" and "\" to create this "W", and have made them into outlines, as I'm trying to give the different layers a colour, as well as having a white space where the lines touch and I would like to remove the top of the second "\".   I'm struggling with the white space at the moment and now I've added a stroke, the fill has decreased. Is there another way I could do this?   I've also tried to use my pen tool to remove the top of the "\" but when using "Path Finder" I cannot find an option to "Minus Forward". I'm a newbie so any advice would be lovely :)

I want to connect a path to a circle so that when I move the circle, the path will follow automatically. I can't just merge the shape together, since that wouldn't allow for the circle to have seperate properties (such as color) from the line.  Right now when I move the circle, I have to adjust the path myself which is annoying.     Is it possible to do that? I could be either on Adobe Illustrator or Affinity Designer.   PS. I have tried to search this before asking but I don't know the keywords so the search results didn't satisfy my need. I only found  but it's Inkscape.
