4.When resizing a design it is not dense enough.
The Futura software will recalculate the stitch of an imported design when sizing, but only when using the DESIGN>CHANGE SIZE option. It does have a limitation of
5. Vector art vs Bitmapped art
When you choose the image, notice that there are many different formats. Autopunch gives the best result when using vector type images, such as .wmf. The software must be able to recognize a color (block) of information. A “. bmp” can be made of millions of colors making it impractical for use.
Clipart falls into two basic categories, Vector Art and Bitmapped Art.
The software is capable of vectorizing the “.bmp” image, but it may lose detail, depending on the image. It is essential to understand about the type of artwork or image used with AutoPunch.
Vector Art is a clean “graphic” blocks of color – by simple definition. Some common formats
Bitmapped Art is the type of “format” that is typically saved when scanning. The computer sees millions of colors to create the “realistic” type of image. Even a
.bmp, .jpg, .tif, .pcx, .pcd, .tga, and .psd.
Tips for Auto Punch:
¡Scan art with a “high resolution”
¡Scan at
Lines that are too narrow to properly sew out are eliminated by the software when it cleans up the artwork.
