A place for embroidery people to meet

what do you use as a editing program for embroidery

I love my Futura Sewing/ Embroidery Machine but I have found that my editing dligitizing software is limited- I can adjust jump points only in the digitizer but hard to see as you can not enlarge viewer so that you can see what the order actually is. The editing software does not let you adjust jump points or add stitches.

Can anyone tell me what they are using that they are able to do

these things with?

I would greatly appreciate your oppinions, I really don't want to spend a fortune on a whole new program.

You can join SewForum.com and see what they have to say under digitizing programs. Great place and great group lots of free designs. Sandy; ▶ Reply to This

Does the file have to be almost perfect to get a good digitizing( like my singer digitizer) or is it a better digitizing program? Can you add stitches and edit jump points?
