Digitizing Pro III
by Walter Floriani
Digitizing Pro III is another amazing module of Floriani Software. It offers the
best of both worlds - a full blown digitizing system with all of the traditional
methods and stitch types of digitizing available as well as auto digitizing with
the revolutionary magic wand tool that allows you to maintain control of the
type of stitches generated.
FLORIANI'S
DIGITIZING PRO III also includes auto cross stitch and auto appliqui in a simple
module that is sure to dazzle the most accomplished embroidery professional.
Floriani's Save2Sew technology utilizes my "Measurement Theory of Embroidery" to
determine the proper underlay, density and distortion values for more than forty
different fabric types. Combine this with one of the most advance levels of
editing available in embroidery software today and Digitizing Pro III is a must
for all who want to take their embroidery artform to the next level of
embroidery creation and control.
A few highlights in the software include, 3 different methods of producing the
satin stitch. The first is what I call a serial satin stitch. This style allows
you to define one side of the satin stitch at a time. This style gives you
exceptional control when working with satin stitches containing variable widths!
The
second method, which I have labeled, Classic Satin, uses a point counterpoint
method of input. This style is for the traditional digitizer who has been around
for a while and is used to this method of satin stitch creation.
The
third method uses the Steil stitch. It is articulated as a running stitch and
then is controlled by a user-defined width. This is great for balanced widths of
satin stitches and also gives you the ability to transform a satin stitch into a
running stitch in the editing process; invaluable when scaling a design down in
size when a satin needs to become a running stitch. You also have full control
of density, underlay, start and end points, angles, jumps, and trims. You can
even create jagged edge and split satin stitch effects. You truly get total
control of the stitch type and all of its embroidery functionality.
The
same is true of the manual stitch, which places a stitch everywhere you click.
The running stitch gives you the choice of a single line, double bean line, and
can even be turned into a motif style line. Our complex fill provides nine
traditional fill type patterns and can also be converted into one of 200
different embossing patterns or one of the many motifs patterns to create a
myriad of incredibly distinct fill effects!
The
editing is absolutely amazing and actually allows you to edit stitch data
created in a different software program as easily and effectively as it does
with stitch data created in the Floriani Embroidery Software itself. You have
total control of the embroidery design. You can size, change density, underlay,
commands of trims and jumps at the click of a button and so much more.
Floriani's Digitizing Pro III comes with 12 unique fonts and the ability to
import true type text. Fonts are completely controllable as to shaping, spacing,
sizing, underlay, kerning, reverse direction, stair-stepping and enveloping into
an amazing amount of shapes. It is truly an incredible piece of Floriani
Technology.
Of
course, Floriani's Digitizing Pro III also comes with our exclusive Save2Sew
technology which now allows you to choose from more than forty different
material types. It also now gives users even more control by providing three
different settings for each fabric type. There is a setting designed for
pre-digitized stock designs, for auto digitized designs, and even for a
bolder/richer look.
As I
have stated before, Floriani Software makes the Novice a Master and the Master a
Magician!
