Aha - simple as that! Worked like a charm.
Yes, I did at first use a basic surface (derived from a closed square curve using 'Planar')
So what is the difference between a Plane and a square (or rectangular) Surface?
.....and once again Thank You :)

Hi Raven, you're welcome!

Construct > Planar makes a trimmed plane, you can see the difference if you select each surface and used Edit > Show pts to turn on the surface's control points.
It would actually be ok to make the square with Construct > Planar but if you tried to make the skewed surface with it that would not work for flow because the "underlying surface" of the trimmed plane is not skewed:

Roger that - so I found that if a standard Surface is to be used as a base, it'll work the same as a Plane as long as I use Command>ShrinkTrimmedSrf first and adjust points accordingly
(obviously easier to use a Plane in the first place)
Those doggone points control everything ;)

Seeing this has solved my quandary on how to italicize my custom font in MoI. I use MoI to make vector images - unusual workflow, I know, but I find it very easy to make shapes with compared to the likes of Inkscape - and have been making my own custom typeface.
