Deb, I only use generations which does that but I would guess you are not planning on spending that kind of money, but if you just want a couple of names digitzed in arch I can do them for you. I am sure there are other programs out there that other cuties can suggest.

Hi there, a couple of us Cuties have a free software program that does exactly what you are looking for. Unfortunately the instructions/ manual that goes with it is not very good. A lot of trial and error - but it works. It comes with 3 fonts and is called Embroidery Fonts Plus. I think I DL it from Embroidery Designs. Good luck. Sarah.

I use Embroidery Fonts Plus which is a free download and well worth the effort.

Sue is quite right. It is well worth the effort. I am still finding my way around the program. I am determined to master it.

I use Monogram Wizard Plus. It has 55 fonts which you can make practically any size you want and stack, arch,circle, the choices are endless. It also has lots of motifs and frames which can be sized to fit the letters you're using. This is a very easy program to use and the customer service has always been helpful if I had any questions. I got my copy at the local sewing store, but they have a website, www.needleheads.com I don't remember how much it cost, around $100-$150 (but that was several years ago. Hope this helps.

Thank you all for the info and questions. I have not been back to my question. My husband had a heart attack and a pacemaker. My life has been busy. I knew
if asked cuties, you would have the answer. I am going
to try you suggestions. Thank You so much. And my husband is better and need time to heal. God is in control. And that is the way we like it.

sewwhat program is a free download trial for 30 days and costs about $65 to buy. It is a good program for monogramming, changing size format and colours, merging designs. It will curve letters and use the fonts already on you computer as well. Does almost everything but digitise. Helen. http://www.sandscomputing.com/id11.html

Hi there, I have just read that your husband suffered a heart attack. I am so sorry. I hope that he is on the mend. This time last year my husband was recovering from a quadrupel bypass. He also had to have a new valve and a pacemaker fitted. He is now as "fit as a flea". Keep strong. Sarah.

i don't know what machine you have, but check with your dealer to see what they offer. when you buy from your dealer, you should get free lessons which are really helpful. Good luck.

I love EM2 which I bought thru Aunty M. It's a digitizing program, very reasonably priced that she has written the tutorial for and "man's" a newsgroup where she answers questions, etc. I use the program mainly for lettering and it arches and bridges lettering, etc. A GREAT program I use everyday.
