Follow signmans steps above and it should clear right up. ALWAYS trace your design without the garment or backing first with a fast frame (naked frame). Will save you lots of damage to your machine. Once you trust the settings, you can just do a trace before sewing with the garment and backing in place. =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
