Hi Kevin,
In regards to the font/hole recognition issue, have you tried:
1) ...turning down the bevel values for both the depth and height on
the back and front faces? This has been a culprit for certain fonts.
2) Also sometimes you may have a back face bevel turned on where it
really should be just a front face bevel, or vice-versa. So try
switching the bevel faces around to see what happens. In addition to
this, some fonts don't take kindly to *both* back and front faces
being enabled; for some of them it's an "either-or" type of thing. So
you may need to experiment to see which fonts fit this category.
3) You could also try highlighting the entire word group and see if
"Arrange > Combine as Compound" might help out.
4) Lastly, going to "Goemetry > Surface Fidelity" and increasing the
vlue above 100% just might help things a little.
Well, hope one of these suggestions can help you out. Unfortunately I
can not help with the Vectorstlye question, since I don't use it.
Cheers.
