Hi Lisa, Don't bother with the Dakota sizer software, it is a really trimmed 
down,
bare-bones version of what I'm thinking is an older version of Melco software.  
I used it
for a short time before getting design shop and pitched it when I got DS.  BTW, 
I had an
all-satin stitch design of a golfer silhouette that was 7 inches high and I 
needed to
reduce to 4 inches.  I resized in 3 programs and stitched them out side by 
side: Dakota
sizer, Brother PE-design 4.0 and HV Stitch Editor.  The HV program made the 
satin stitches
into zizzag stitches, the poorest outcome of the 3.  The Dakota program was 
much better,
but a little "rough".  The Brother program did a beautiful job, it was a smooth 
resize, no
changes in the look of the design.  I keep the PE design on my computer for 
tough resizes;
I purchased for $50 on Ebay and use the 4.0 version because it doesn't require 
the
reader/writer box, it has a parallel port dongle.  NAYY, and all that stuff, 
LOL!  Edna

Does anyone own and use the Dakota sizer Software, does it offer anything 
that the Amaya software does not?

I have found that when resizing in Design shop that I still need to send it 
to a digitizer, was wondering if the Dakota Software would help me.
