Embroidery digitizing is a process
of converting artwork into a machine-readable format. The technical and highly
creative process starts with modifying complex images so that they can all be
used for embroidery. Decisions need to be made about the path of the design,
which determines how it will appear on clothing.
Stitches assignment
The next step is to assign stitches
according to the design. The first step starts with the backing stitches, which
are not visible in the final design or logo, but are important for a flawless
finished look. The bottom layer helps maintain the fabric and provides a base
for the upper layer of stitches on the fabric, giving it a smoother finish and
increased density. The fabric underneath the design is visible if proper
padding is not used. There are three types of stitches, run, satin and fill.
The digitizer will make sure he is fully prepared for the pull and push of the
embroidery and adjust accordingly for the best results in the final machine
work of the fabric.
Save design
The final step after embroidering a
design is to save the design in an internal file format. Since the embroidery
machine and design software have different languages, the digitizer needs to
create a copy for the embroidery machine to read and understand.
