If you've already created the "character" and don't want to go through the phi and rebuild routine, you might be able to solve the problem by editing the cr2. It's possible you might be able to achieve the same thing by changing the bend sections of your character. If you open the cr2 in a text editor and run a search for "bend" in the file check to see if they're set to 0 (zero) if so, change that to 1 and those sections should now bend appropriately. It's worked a couple of times for me but there's no guarantee I'm afraid that it'll work for what you're doing. If that fails, then it may be you'll need to do what Phil suggests and rebuild the phi and character files. Just a thought. :)
