Have you tried the BX fonts that Embrilliance uses? They are pretty fantastic as you just type them in, instead of entering each letter individually. I think you can use them with just their free software. I was goofing around with different fonts with my name...

I only have the free Embrilliance Express--would like to buy the Essential, I think it is called but haven't bought anything in awhile. I have bought many BS fonts from various places and also sometimes get some free. I do use it for typing names and paragraphs etc. Have a Martha Pullen Noah's Ark embroidered blocks I did many years ago and unfinished quilt to make with it. I took the Bible and typed about 5-6 extra blocks with words and verse to embroider out so it tells the story. Haven't embroidered those blocks out yet but soon. I just haven't been in the playing or actual frame of mind to embroider anything yet as I am healing mind and body still. Have fun playing.

It does look like you’re enjoying yourself, playing with all the font styles.
I use Embird, and it has a similar function (Font Engine) in which you also just type in the text you want to generate. The software lets you assign size, style, outline/fill, shape, etc. That’s the fun part for me - changing the various attributes to see how it alters the end result with the same font.

I just finished using it to stitch a new baby’s name and Christening date on a family heirloom gown. I used capital letters from one font and lower case letters & numbers from another font to make it look as close as possible to the hand embroidery I did for their previous baby. With 25 characters in the name alone, machine embroidery was definitely the way to go!!

Have fun creating!
