[amayausers] Re: Font Question

Cheryl,
If I remember correctly I used a density of 4.3 with this font and got it to 
work very well. My opinion is 3.5 is to dense. Also went into machine settings 
and changed the column feed to 53. takes a little thread away and makes small 
lettering sew better.

  Hi all,

  I am hoping someone might be reading who can help me out. I am using a 
Cooperplate font at .25 inches tall on a cotton knit medium weight t shirt. 
Double backing. I cannot get the cooperplate to look right. Code sheets 
indicate that is the smallest possible size. Density is 3.5 with a center walk. 
It will sew at 3.5 but maybe that is too dense??? The lettering looks uneven, 
almost puckered. I always thought if it will sew out, use the lowest density 
possible? Should I try a lower density?. My test sew outs were done on 2 layers 
of cutaway backing sheets and it looked great, but add the royal blue T shirt 
material with white thread. EEE GADS, a nightmare. Any ideas?  I also added 
double solvy on top last night before giving up, it improved a little but still 
that bunched puckering look. Thanks for any help
