DS Pro Plus is set up to automatically use TTF to produce good emb alphs. It is no different than using the fonts provided by Melco. Click on the "A" icon, then click where you want the text and hit Enter. This will bring up the font window. The TTF are listed after all the fonts provided by Melco with the software. And they have the "TTF" little icon before their name. Simply choose the one you want and type in the desired text. This is just like usie the provided fonts. But you should use the tabs at the top of the window to put in the tie in/tie off, stitch length, column or fill, trims, etc,etc. Lots of choices. If you mainly use the same settings, you can hit the "Save as Default" to save these setting so that all future usage will default to these settings. You can always go in and change them. When you think you have got is all done, hit apply and you can see it on the workspace, then hit left most button, Done? (can't remember) and your done. You can go back in and change things or you can move the text around or even resize it. I don't like resizing with the corners. That should do you. Not hard.
