- What is Embroidery Digitizing?
- Digitizing
or Punching is the process of literally
- converting artwork into a digital
code that can be read
- by today's computerized embroidery
machines.
-
- Original full-color, camera-ready
artwork can be emailed
- in preferred vector (outline) format
such as
- Illustrator .eps, Freehand10 .fh,
or generic .eps
-
- Other acceptable file formats are
- Photoshop .psd., Illustrator .ai,
- Corel .cdr, Adobe Acrobat .pdf and
generic .jpeg
-
- Grayscale or outline artwork, which
is Faxed,
- can be used as a template.
-
- A skillful digitizing artist imports
the original files,
- using highly specialized embroidery
software
- to create designs made up of thousands
of stitches.
-
- Stops, trims and colors are programmed
- into the design during digitizing.
-
- Embroidery files are exported as
encoded patterns,
- which are then read by the sewing
machine's hard drive.
-
- This digital code provides instructions
to the
- embroidery machine's operating system
which, in turn,
- tells the embroidery machine how
to sew the design.
-
- Embroidery formats can only be opened
with
- compatible embroidery software, requiring
a security key.
