Yes its me once again tonight. Guess I'm on a roll.
I am doing lettering using a true type font and
applied an outline to it. It stitched out not too bad
but I wanted to add compensation to the outline so I
changed it to wire frame. Highlighted the single line
center and increased pull comp. It stitched out fine
but I forgot to add tie ins and offs. After I enabled
the tie in/tie off it loaded strange into the OS. It
showed up like a thumbnail in top right corner or OS
screen. It would not do a fit to screen. Put hoop on
and tried doing trace and it said out of limits and
traced this huge path that definitely wasn't my
lettering area. Then I couldn't do anything with the
machine. When I tried centering my hoop, it told me
it wasn't at head up--it was! Don't ask me how long
it took me to determine that it was the tie in/tie off
enabling that caused this to happen-I went through
numerous checks to see what caused this version of the
design not to work when the previous one did.
Does anyone know what is going on here?
I don't think that ties are put into the true type
fonts when I bring them into design shop. What am I
doing wrong? How can I make sure the tie stitches are
in my lettering?
Thanks,
Susan
