JANOME Embroidery Software Instruction Book
Chapter 14 Automatic Digitizing
102
The Click-to-Stitch tools provide everything
necessary to digitize shapes in
bitmap
images
automatically without using manual input
methods. These tools are useful for quickly
creating embroidery objects from scanned images
that do not require particular artistic effects or
embroidery-specific knowledge. This in turn frees
you to spend more time on the artistic or
inherently complicated areas of your designs.
Click-to-Stitch is available as a ‘flyout toolbar’ on
the Digitize toolbar providing the six options
shown above. These tools trigger functions of the
same name found in the Embroidery >
Click-to-Stitch menu.
Note Even if your
artwork
looks ready to stitch, it
needs to be image-processed first. See
Preparing
Images for Automatic Digitizing
for details.
Matching palette colors to an image
Use the Match to Palette tool to find the nearest
match between a selected image color block and a
palette color. If Match to Palette is not selected,
the color block is digitized in the current palette
color.
