Questions

Can I do a whole name?

Yes. Type the name instead of one letter; the whole word becomes one frame. In the app, turn on Split into letters to give each letter its own photo.

Which fonts work best for a single letter?

Heavy fonts with wide strokes show the most photo: Anton, Bebas Neue, Alfa Slab One, Abril Fatface or a bold serif like Playfair Display. Thin fonts leave little room for the picture.

Is the preview the real frame?

Yes. The letter outline is extracted from the same font file with the same code the app uses, so what you see here is what Text to Frames adds to your design.
