If you want to achieve the 30% bobbin under columns you will need to run with the manunal setting. Then carefully balance your bobbin tension and thread feed settings to get that perfect column and reduce puckering. When running small columns, <25pts or so, or small lettering you want less bobbin thread showing on the back of the columns. That will prevent bobbin thread from pulling to the top of the material. =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
