Hey John hi.
It's those same dreaded two words... "small lettering" and "pique". Both
tough for any embroiderer, on any machine, no matter how much experience
they have.
I recommend using the block, micro block, or open block at .18 with an
additional 20-30% column width and if necessary 10% additional letter width.
I usually use about 3.7-3.8 density with solvy on top, no short stitches.
Hope that works; good luck!
Thank-you,

Sorry to be a pest... Can anyone provide some guidance on this? Havn't
heard back from anyone.
Out of curiosity, how many people are on this list?

Subject: Small Fonts
Got a design in for a customer last week and of course, it involves small
fonts. I looked at the Micro's that come with design shop and at their
"minimum setting" listed on the code sheet, they still seem big.... At least
bigger than we need for this logo. The Micro Block gives a minimum size of
20... And we probably need about an 18.
Can anyone offer thoughts on how to get small fonts to sew out well on pique
and what fonts/settings work best.
You all have been great in helping us make the jump to the Amaya so far. We
really appreciate it!
