Hello Linda,
.DST files, by nature, cannot retain trim commands. During the conversion from
.OFM to .DST, trim commands are converted to something like 6 jumpstitch
commands. Most commercial machines have the ability to covert over a specific
number of jump stitches to trim commands. On the Amaya it's set at 3 jump
stitches by default.
My suggestion to you is to save your files as .EXP files and send them to your
PR600 in this format. .EXP files do retain trim commands. If your PR600
cannot recognize the .EXP format, then you will probably have to open up your
design in the PE Designs software and either put in your trims again or
possibly your Brother software will have the ability to insert trims for you,
by default, based on the software settings.
Just curious, Do you not own the PE Designs software? I understand it is sold
with the machine. Maybe not in every case?
Thanks and hope this helps,
