pattern twice on top of each other. So in effect I am sewing twice as many as I would normally. I have to do this design on thirty + ornaments. That makes over sixty stitchouts. Is there a way to make the design denser while still enlarging it or do I have to redigitize it myself? Can anyone help me? My program won't let me work with finished designs. Once it is .pes format, that's it, done for, no changes can be made.

I am using PE Design, but an OLD version. Version 4.0 to be exact. Seeing as they just released v.8, I am in the dark ages when it comes to digitizing and working with designs. It would be so much easier to learn to digitize with a program from the 'modern era!'

I am not familiar with your program - I use 4D Pro, and it adjusts the stitch count. Was it a freebie design from somewhere? I would try to help you get the design resized if I knew what it was.

Even with version 7 of PEDesign I sometimes have the issue... version 8 is not the cure for this neither at least for some drawings. If you want to email me your drawing I can try for you. I give you my email as a private message. PAt

My Janome Scan'n Sew (ancient) only allows me to resize up to 20% - more than that and it causes the problems u are mentioning. Probably quicker to redigitize the design - good luck, someone will come to your rescue i'm sure

Actually it recalculate the stitches but I am not mistaking it does not really fix the density
I use it and have no problems with maintaining the density
Same as adelmarie... it does not work nicely with PES files...
That is right, it does recaulculates the stitches because it moves them around and adds a couple of stitches if the distance is between one stitch and the other gets too long. Basically so you don't end up with a loop or jumped stitches, however it does not correct the design's density.

cordura5,
A simple solution that you may try is to stitch out using 30 weight embroidery thread instead of 40 weight. Use a topstitch needle. This works for me sometimes. Good luck

I can easily resize without loss of density, my email is in my profile, so if you wish I can do it for you.
