I installed the software, key was accepted. I started it up and seemed to want to run.

I tried to enter some simple text, as per the tutorial. However, when I tried to replace the Mad Punch text, upon hitting the space bar, all the menus disappeared, and I got a fat squggly thing on the screen.

I ran into the same problem. I found out that if you hold down the CTRL key when you press space, it actuallys adds a space to the text.

The window for options is not high enough. You must show the bottom.

The space bar toggles between options windows.

The CTL+SPACE is for adding a space between lettering

The developers chose to do this to make digitizing quicker by placement of your hand during digitizng.
