I sew on Leathers and vinyls constantly. I only use actifeed and set the lower
limit to 1 or 2. I've never had any problems. Make sure your presser foot is
set right. I set mine where a piece of paper moves easily back & forth between
the foot and material. Also, make sure your bobin thread pulls through easily
(no drag). Sometimes i've found also that some top solvy helps. I use
Aquafilm for a top solvy, it's clear and thicker but goes away easily with a
little water.
You may also want to check the font & thread density you're using and see if
you've added underlay. Some of the fonts already have underlay built in and if
you add it that can be a problem.
