Saving the Embroidery Data
The embroidery data can be saved in the sewing machine’s memory or on a floppy disk.
Caution
•
Embroidery data saved in the sewing machine’s memory can be
recalled and sewn. Be sure to save created embroidery data.
•
Saved embroidery data cannot be recalled with On Screen Designer.
To recall data and edit it with On Screen Designer, save the image
data on a floppy disk before converting it to embroidery data or
press
after the conversion to return to the pattern drawing
screen, and then save the image data on a floppy disk. (Refer to
“Saving Image Data” on page 39.)

Do not insert a floppy disk containing pattern data other than
those saved using our application. (Only .pmd and .phc data
can be used.)
