The new version of Design Shop Pro + works well with the vector images. It has auto digitizing features that convert any type of picture to a vector image and then you can convert the vector to embroidery. I am finding it works very well. Do you have some level of Design shop?

Anyway, wondered if any of you have tried the Coreldraw Drawstitch program. We have a lot of our own artwork in vector format and would like something to automatically convert it to optiumum stitches. This program seems to offer that capability .... so that we do not have to do the complete digitizing process. (I am sure adjustments would have to be made). It is new for Coreldraw but sounds enticing. Images then can be converted to .exp files compatible to Design Pro Plus and then converted to .ofm. Beverly Hanson Beebop Productions
