How to digitize embroidery designs with embird manual#
Objects such as Fill, Sfumato, Carving, Column, Column with pattern, Outline, Connection, Appliqué and Manual Stitches are available. To store designs, Studio uses its own file format with all objects, parameters, stitches and background images stored in a single file (*.eof). A raster picture can be imported as a template into the background of the working area. Vector format allows resizing of designs without loss of quality. When finished, the design is compiled into stitches and put into Embird Editor for final adjustment and saved in the desired embroidery format.ĭesigns are created in a vector form using lines and curves.


It allows the user to digitize scalable embroidery designs up to 200×200 centimeters (78.8×78.8″) large.Ī design is digitized so that the user creates outline (vector) objects either on a blank background or on an image (template) in the work area. Digitizing Tools is an optional part of Embird Studio.
