Creating and Editing New Designs 67 Matching Design Colors with the Machine Palette The Match Machine Palette tool is a quick way to convert design colors to the actual Machine needle colors, as assigned in the Machine Needle palette. In order to use this tool, you must first create a Machine Needle palette that correctly reflects the needle thread colors on the machine. For the details about that procedure, see "Setting up the Machine Needle Palette," above. Once the Machine Needle palette has been set up, the procedure is very simple; create a design (or open an existing one) and click the Match Machine Palette tool (located on the List tab). This tool's color-matching algorithm will automatically assign each color object in the design to the needle with the most similar color in the Machine Needle palette. When you output the design, the colors will now match those of the machine needles. Using the Autodigitizer Wizard You can create embroidery from imported images in a few simple steps using the Autodigitizer Wizard. This tool uses a step-by-step procedure to convert bitmap images to embroidery objects; simply choose an image and follow the instructions as they come up. You can use images with shading because by the Autodigitizer ignores closely related colors when cleaning the image during color matching (see step 3). Step1: Open the Image file 1) On the toolbar, select the Autodigitizer icon. You see the Autodigitizer Wizard window.
