Hi, i am trying to create a tangent loft for my font, but i get an error "the loft could not be created. try changing the inputs, swapping profiles for rails or a centerline, or adjusting the continuity conditions".. Would anyone know why this is not working?

Tangent condition works with body edge profiles and not sketches, but Direction and vary the weight is similar.

 

Loft can not do profiles with holes in one go, 

you must do full solid outer profile, Join or New Body, 

and second inner profiles in Loft > Cut

 

Might help....

You did not include your model so I had to create one of my own.  The Screencast will show the process I used.  Model is attached to follow along with the process.

So many spline points - does not make for a good result - but then I don't work with text, might be ok.
