Where did you get that "Digital-7" font? It seems that its geometry is wrong..

I have download it from internet, need it for what I want to do, did not see any in gimp fonts.
A broken font. ( get it from Dafont) Tried in Gimp 2.8 so not just Gimp 2.10
Sometimes these can be fixed by running throught FontForge, sometimes more bother than they are worth. I will have a go. In the mean time text to path is still there to render. Edit: Did not take much fixing: Zipped and attached

Edit Reason: typo

Not 100% sure what you are asking
1. Do you need the character ( O ) center of the black base layer. Add 50% guides Image -> Guides -> New Guide (by percent) The text is in a fixed box which makes it look off center. In the Text tool options Box -> Dynamic Now use the move tool and move the center of the text box to the center of the canvas guides. If you want to tidy things up then Layer -> Layer to Image size (not absolutely necessary, you will lose text properties) demo: https://i.imgur.com/P1HUdQX.mp4 2. Transparent text: An old post I made, still there: https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Cut-Out-Text For your text, which is quite small I would try: Layer -> Path from Text (The rendered white text is not wonderful) Add a new White layer. Add a white layer mask With the layer mask active, make a selection from the path, fill the selection with Black. Turn off the selection and also path visibility. Turn off the text layer visibility. Anything in a layer under will show through the text. demo: https://i.imgur.com/aGoNNzk.mp4
