My MELCO seller knew I was going to buy Creative DRAWings ( I started with version 4 and have upgraded to version 6) which would allow me to partially edit imported design files, as well as draw and digitise my own designs, which is what I actually wanted to do. Maybe your seller thought you had another digitising programme. I think CrDr is called something else in USA. You definitely need to upgrade to the full MELCO programme, or buy another digitising programme. Ask around. Here in Oz, we are fortunate to have an incredible CrDr seller, who offers unbelievable follow-up, live help ( via SKYPE), excellent video tutorials, and who also uses, but is not an agent for Amaya embroidery machines, and it was he who recommended the Amaya brand to me. 3 years down the track, I am still pretty much a novice, but draw and digitise my own designs in CrDr6, but I much prefer the text programme of DL9, so, I import my own designs into the -Amaya, then engage DL9 to add my text. I just happen to prefer the DL9 text programme to the CrDr6 text, except when doing large ornate text, when the CrDr6 programme shines out. I looked into digitising programmes, and listened to other folk who owned them, and were always bamboozled by them, before deciding to invest in CrDr, which was 1/3 the price, with a lot more control, and relatively easy to learn, especially with the excellent after sales service that still endures. If I can help, lease contact me directly at embroideryserviceki@xxxxxxxxx.
