I have found that some digitisers have not used the machines they create designs for and rely totally on their own experience with machines they have tested, which makes it difficult sometimes. I digitise myself and have testers who use other brands of machine do some testing for me - this definitely helps me to understand what people with different types of machines are expecting to see. Greg's suggestion looks to be a solution - sometimes if the setting for jumps is too long then the machine will interpret the spacing between the letters as a jump and ignore the trim that has been digitised. Hope this may have helped understanding a little. =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
