Hey! I just ordered a heatpress from heatpressnation.com, and I am using their paper "paropy inkjet light pro"

My question is, how can I press text without getting the box around my text? It's pretty noticeable, and I don't see how cutting around it would be a viable option as each letter would have to be separated, so that would take a very long time to align them and press it. So If I get myself a paper cutter, it would also just cut them all into a bunch of seperate letters, and if im printing something with 20+ words, you can see how that might not be a good option... Any suggestions?

You would make a cutable file and cut your text out on a plotter and then mask it and that keeps everything registered for placement.

if you have a cutter to cut the text, you might as well use use vinyl
unless these are multicolored letters

How many shirts do you need to print? Maybe custom transfers are an option.

so if i order custom transfers, the box around won't show right? Because they screenprint onto transfer paper, so only the letters would be shown?

That is correct
