That's how I read it. Using 75/11 needles a 1mm stitch would have .25mm
between needle penetrations, which is a pretty good minimum for trouble free
stitching on any machine. Of course, you still have density settings that
could still bring the needle down onto previous stitches.
I'm well versed in Design Shop, but I not familiar at all with AOS. I'm not
a fan of having the machine filter stitches. I'd much rather do the
filtering in DS where I can look at the actual stitches and make sure that
the filtering isn't causing unexpected problems. Sometimes, less than 1mm or
10pts, is not only ok, but necessary for some elements. A #9 needle and 60wt
thread. Tiny lettering on top of a fill, etc. That's where the skill of the
digitizer and their knowledge comes into play.

Don,
Is Rod is setting his minimum colum width to 10 pts being equal to 1mm?
Does that mean he deletes stitches below one mm in width?
Anand
PS I have got Amaya problems again came in yesterday morning and turned
the machine on and all hell broke loose.
My brain isn't quite switched on yet, but...I think you misplaced your
decimal points. 5pts is the same as .5mm 10pts is the same as 1mm
Simply move the decimal point one place to the left to convert pts to mm
or the opposite: one place to the right to convert mm to points.

Two
> things about the Amaya I and others have noticed, is that the Amayas
do not like short stitches in a design and along the same line, it does
not like super small columns, as in small lettering. The cure for this
Is to learn how 20 use the software An example of this is to select the
entire design, Properties, Column and at the bottom of the display
window, change the "minimum column width" to 10 points instead of the
default points. This plus the ability to adjus thread feeds, material
thickness, stitch lengths, reduce overall stitches, etc, etc, will make
it possible to edit any design to run flawlessly with an absolute
minimum of thread breaks. All anyone is saying about digitizing for the
Amaya is that if the digitizer has an Amaya he can verify a given
design on, he will usually do the footwork for the customer letting him
know the best settings and speed he ran the design at to achieve the
best results. If a person wants to slow the Amaya down to the slower
speeds some of the other machines run at, than you may need less
editing of individual designs. Some designs need quite a lot and others
don't need any. Adjusting and editing designs so the Amaya can run at 12
to 1300 does not=20
