Adding lettering to embroidery
designs
EasyDesign lets you add lettering to designs
quickly and easily using the built-in library of
embroidery fonts. Apply formatting to lettering
objects in the same way as a word processor,
including italics.
Try this! The size of your lettering will determine
the type of underlay you need to apply. Apart from
stabilizing, underlay helps give ‘loft’ or to raise
your lettering off the fabric. Lettering with heights
under 5 mm should not have underlay. Letters 6
mm to 10 mm can have a center-run underlay
applied. Lettering larger than 10 mm is large
enough for edge-run underlay. See also Stabilizing
with underlays .
Creating embroidery lettering
You can change lettering characteristics before or
after you digitize. You can also modify lettering
objects directly on-screen to achieve various
artistic effects. EasyDesign provides a font range
suitable for many applications.

Try this! You can insert a color change between two
letters by keying a caret (^) symbol. Subsequent letters
default to the next color in the palette.
