Good morning to all. I'm a graphic designer in screen printing seeking new challenges and thought I'd explore embroidery digitizing to add to my arsenal. For those who know digitizing, how hard is it to learn? Thanks a bunch!
edit: What digitizing software is used by the pros and where can I download demos? Last edited by Mary Davis : January 28th, 2006 at 11:20 AM. |

Welcome to the forums, Mary. Do you have an embroidery machine or have access to one?

No I don't have an embroidery machine. Is that a requirement?

Honestly, I don't know how anyone can be a good digitizer without access to an embroidery machine. Kind of like learning to drive a car without access to one.
A digitizer is essentially someone who gives instructions to embroidery machines via a file. Not knowing the fundamental limits and nuances of embroidery, well, I assure you the results will not be pleasant. So the first thing on your list should be learning the ins and outs of embroidery before learning digitizing. Maybe you can talk to an embroiderer who wants to learn screen printing and you guys can learn from each other? As for your digitizing software question, see this thread |

Just an update. You were right Marc. Digitizing is harder than I thought. I've decided to put if off for the moment as I think it would take too much of my time. Thanks for the tip!
