So with this method, I can cut out some fillings of letters in a logo, but for this example it draws a small line through the letter: %%% \starttext \framed[background=color,backgroundcolor=red,height=fit,width=fit]{ \startMPcode path db[],df[],dc[]; drawoptions (withcolor (0.000000,0.329412,0.560784)); db1 := (86.812500,0.519531)--(92.457001,0.519531)--(92.457001,32.386700) --(86.812500,32.386700)--(86.812500,19.679701)--(86.722702,19.679701) ..controls (85.390602,21.589800) and (82.816399,22.718800)..(79.929703,22.718800) ..controls (73.976601,22.718800) and (69.800797,17.253901)..(69.800797,11.617200) ..controls (69.800797,4.683590) and (73.664101,0.000000)..(79.484398,0.000000) ..controls (82.949203,0.000000) and (85.257797,1.820310)..(86.722702,3.640620) --(86.812500,3.640620)--cycle; df1 := (81.437500,19.246099)..controls (84.992203,19.246099) and (86.812500,15.734400)..(86.812500,11.964800) ..controls (86.812500,7.625000) and (85.128899,3.464840)..(81.171898,3.464840) ..controls (77.753899,3.464840) and (76.062500,7.542970)..(76.062500,11.746100) ..controls (76.062500,15.953100) and (77.621101,19.246099)..(81.437500,19.246099) --cycle; draw db1; draw df1; dc1 := db1 -- df1 -- cycle; fill dc1; \stopMPcode } \stoptext %%% Can this be solved somehow?
