I'm trying to export a Inkscape file with text to a dxf file so I can import it into Corel .
I will use the dxf to cut vinyl.

Can text be exploded with Inkscape?

What do you mean by "exploded"?
Do want to make it all bigger, or make it rounded like bubbles, or to actually look like it's blowing up? Or?

When I Import an inkscape df file into Corel I loose all the text.
I'd like to convert the text into curves. Preferably Bezier.
Then Corel can recognize the curves.

thanks for the line

If I understand, I think you want to select the text, then Text menu > Text to Path. But after you do that, it will never again be text, and can't be editted as text, only as paths -- bezier curves.

I used Text to Path to wrap the text around a circle. I'd like to convert the text to a Bezeir curve after I wrap it around the curve.
