Arranging Embroidery Designs (Layout & Editing)

a Note:

Thread colors in embroidery patterns created with this software may appear differently on the embroidering machine.

1.Embroidery machines without a function for displaying thread color information The specified thread information cannot be displayed on some machines.

2.Embroidery machines with a function for displaying thread colors

Of the thread information specified in the embroidery pattern, only the thread colors are displayed on the machine. However, the thread color names that are displayed are limited to the machine’s preset thread color names. Therefore, use thread color names in the embroidery pattern that are closest to the machine’s preset thread color names.

3.Machines with a thread color index Some machines can display the thread information (such as the color, the color name as well as the brand name and thread number) specified with this software. The machines can display the color, the color name as well as the brand name and thread number.

However, for items edited or added by the user (items marked with an asterisk (*)), only the thread number is displayed.
