Oh okay, that makes more sense. Sorry this is my first time using anything like this, last rookie question though. How would I add the faces back in after?

That makes sense, however I don't want to delete the faces as I feel like that will make my sign look weird? I would like it to look like blocked out letters, for exaple here is a sign I have had for a while from a store and I was hoping to be able to make my sign look similar to this with a much lower Li. https://gyazo.com/cc8d68fca4044b70d14255b0195ed98b

So I have dissolved both sides and it's taken the Li down but only by 2. I take my hat off to anyone that does this frequently, I feel like this is going to be my first and last time attempting this!

So this is my screen, which I believe shows the pathway you're on about? The text is all one conjoined object, as in no separate letters as I imported the whole image in after I had turned it into a .svg file. https://gyazo.com/06b6b612d76578e07b7db56ca8ecb38d

Hi everyone, So I've created my first 3d sign (well 3d anything) in blender today for a studio I am opening. I have made the sign just a basic text sign but then extruded the edges to make it 3d. My issue is that the sign I have made has crazy high land impact, 35 Li to be precise. How on earth do I get that Li down to a sensible amount? It took me a while to manage to make my graphic 3d after having to vector it, so any advice in simple terms would be very much appreciated
