The reason I asked is that I bought one also. It is a big learning curve, especially the software. Can someone recommend a good program for digitizing? I have a single head, 15 needle machine. Larry

ADS (Automatic Digitizing System). It sells for around $3,400, and will perform with programs that cost thousands more.
You can run it in fully automatic mode, or hand-punch if you want. It has complete editing capabilities and will digitize any true type font.

I have found that digitizing is an art form in itself, you can get 5 different people digitize the same thing and get 5 completely different end results when you sew. We send ours off for digitizing and had nothing but great results for a very resonable price. I also saw an ad for a digitizing add-on for CorelDRAW- looked pretty cool for about $1000- whether it will work like it claimed is another story.

That would be DRAWings. The problem with that program is that you cannot edit in any way. It's a great tool in the digitizing process, but you still need a full fledged digitizing program.
Digitizing is definitely an acquired skill. But I can't think of an easier group to teach, than sign folks who are skilled computer designers.
