Re: Floppy disks
as far as formatting the floppies, you'll want to do a 'quick format' by right clicking the disk in windows...thats been the easiest, most fool proof way for me. I usually get a couple disks a year that get corrupt somehow. In fact, i noticed the other day i was using a disk that had my name on it from high school--11 years later, still working like a champ. I cycle the same 50 disks. Actual "files" are kept on my PC in a folder, by name of job. Those files get backed up daily to server.
I use Melco to digitize, it allows me to print the data sheet with the sew sequence/colors/picture of the design, etc etc...i just print those out and keep them by the machine for deigns which i can't remember the sequence...i generally sew the same 100 designs over and over so i don't need anything extensive.
