Hi Tom,
You didn't say what font you were using, but the difference in height is
probably allowing compensation for push and pull. When stitched, an object
with only a vertical column (A and I) is going to look taller than an object
with a horizontal column at the top/bottom, such as an R (top only) and an E
(top and bottom). 
The auto split feature is on the columns tab in the object properties
dialog. It's a check-box about in the center of the box.
Hope this helps,
Mary

Subject: [amayausers] 3" Lettering on a Nylon Flag

 Hi Folks;
I have a nylon flag that my customer wants 3" high letters.  I have a coule
questions before I attempt this job.
1.  How do I access the split stitch option?  Is this the recommended stitch
type?

2.  When I entered the following letter on my Design Shop Pro+, AERIE - they
are not uniform height on the screen.  The A is a bit smaller, the E is a
bit larger, the R is ok, the I is shorter, and the last E is also larger.
When I go to 3D, it also shows all the letters at these different heights.
If this design does sew out as shown, it will look really awful.  What is
the problem here?

Thanks for any help you can give me on this.
