[amayausers] Re: Clipping Jump Stitches

Sharon,
        In the lettering properties window, do you have "Connections" set as
"Closest Point"?  This feature was a part of the 2004 Design Shop software.
Prior to this, only those fonts that were digitized as a "CP" font could
stitch with jump stitches sewn at the closest points between those letters.
Now you get a choice of three options, "AS DIGITIZED", CLOSEST POINT", OR
"BOTTOM CONNECTIONS".
        Of course I'm assuming you're not stitching with closest point 
connections
because those connections are usually too small to cut to begin with.
Especially at .25" letter height.

Out of curiosity, how many of the jump stitches are most of you clipping?  I
am working on a bunch of aprons with 4 lengthy words and a design.  The font
is about .25 in size.  There is a total of 27 jump stitches to clip if I
clip all of them.  To date, I try to do this because they show (white
lettering on red aprons)--do you all do the same or am I spending too much
time?
