Recipe Setting
Recipes contain fabric settings that are applied to the text created in
your design. These settings will vary, depending on the type of fabric,
or type of garment the design will be sewn on. For example, the “Cap”
recipe contains special underlay, pull-compensation, and density
settings appropriate for designs that will be sewn on baseball caps.
You can set the default to a specific recipe through the Preferences
dialog box. The recipe you choose then becomes the default for all
subsequent design files that you create, and the fabric settings of the
selected recipe will be applied to all the lettering your create in the
design.
To choose the recipe:
1
Open the Preferences dialog.
2
Click the arrows button
next to the Recipe field.
You see the list of available recipes.
3
Select a Recipe appropriate to the garment or fabric will be sewing
on.
4
Click the
Apply
button.
5
Choose the New
tool.
The templates dialog opens; you can now create a design based on
the selected recipe.
For more information, see “Creating New Designs
.”
For more information about the settings in each recipe, see the Recipe
Information.pdf file.
In order to have the recipe apply to a design, the recipe change must
be applied before selecting the template.
