Thank you Dave. I copied your post here because I think it deserves to have its own special thread.

I just did a test with 2 letters and, if I'm understanding you, I think it did what you need. Try it with 2 letters and see.
1 - convert the letters to curves, no fill, black hairline outlines
2 - select the two curves (letters) and hit the intersect button
3 - right click on the red palette color to set the outline to red for the new curve created by the intersect (or do it in object properties)
4 - go back and reselect the original 2 curves (letters) and click the weld button
At this point you have a black outline around the outside of the combined letters and you have a red line that follows the places where they intersected. When you engrave the red lines and cut the black lines you'll end up with the welded letters cut out and the inside lines of the letters engraved.
...Dave
