In this tutorial I’ll be demonstrating how you can use Inkscape to give your logo designs a custom text treatment where the letters overlap each other. This can make your logo designs look more personalized than they would if you just used a stock font as-is.

This lesson will also introduce a new feature from Inkscape 1.0, which is the Offset live path effect, so make sure to download version 1.0 before continuing on with this tutorial. You can learn more about some of the new features in another video I made about it.
