Optional lettering plug-ins for Embird Embroidery Software

About

Embird Alphabets are re-sizeable and have adjustable parameters like density, texture and underlay type. Program computes stitches anew for each text label. This approach allows Embird to optimize stitches for each individual lettering layout and settings.

Embird Editor and Manager work with Alphabets through a text tool window. The text tool allows to adjust layout of lettering and apply envelope, skewing and other shaping operations. When finished, lettering is compiled into stitches and put into Embird Editor for final adjustment and save in desired embroidery format.

Alphabets are accessible also from Studio’s interactive lettering. When used from Studio, Alphabets produce text in a vector (outline) form that can be further edited in Studio.
