Advanced Design Creation with VBE, Drawing tools and Vector Import
Illustrator provides several digitizing approaches, from traditional to more advanced
techniques, for creating premium embroidery. Special stitch effects and advanced
features give you the tools you need to create beautiful embroidery.
Key Features:
Vector and TTF import
Import artwork or copy vectors from Adobe® Illustrator® and CorelDRAW® and paste them
directly into Tajima DG/ML by Pulse while preserving the vector points and original colors.
Quickly assign stitch types to segments. Import TrueType® fonts as artwork and convert to any
stitch type.
Vector Import
Easily import vector files directly into the software while preserving
both vector points and colors of the original file. There is no need to draw,
trace or digitize the segments individually—just select the segments and apply
the desired stitch types.That’s all it takes to create embroidery from vector artwork.
Once you’ve worked with Vector Import you’ll wonder how you ever managed without it!
Import Truetype® fonts
The Import TrueType® feature helps you create new lettering with amazing ease.
Just import any TrueType® font and convert it into embroidery by using the slice
tool to breakup the segments and then assign stitch types and angle lines.
With a few clicks of the mouse, you have new ready-to-sew lettering.
The end result is high quality embroidery that is sure to impress your customers.
Image Vectorizer
Transform bitmap images into vector artwork
almost effortlessly. Generate vectorized images
from bitmaps, and then choose stitch types that
best suit your design needs.
Branching
Digitize complex shapes without worrying about sequencing. Multiple satin, steil, or run segments
are sequenced optimally to reduce travel runs, jumps, and trims. Branched segments behave as
one large segment with one start and stop point and continuous underlay throughout.
Steil Tool
Creates uniform width satin
stitches. Great for creating
outlines and borders.
Programmed Runs & Fills
Create beautiful linear and fill effects that add
originality to your designs. includes over 185
programmed patterns, or create your own, for
beautiful results.
Symbol Tool
Save time and avoid repetitive tasks. Save
commonly used shapes as symbols for use in
all future designs. Includes 200 ready-to-use
symbols.
Contour Stitch
Special decorative effect highlights curves using
fewer stitches than a traditional fill.
Circular Copy
Copy any vector and reproduce it in a circular
fashion. Save time and avoid copying and pasting
each shape manually. Easily create shapes with
repetitive components such as flower petals or
create a completely new composition.
Design Catalog for the Web
Using a pre-created template and .jpg images,
Design Catalog for the Web organizes design
images into HTML Web pages. Add the Web
pages to your existing online store to reach
a larger customer base with your designs.
Easily select multiple segments in a design; create new designs easily
Elements (names given to multiple segments)
make selecting specific parts of a design a
breeze. All you need to do is add one or more
segments to an Element, assign it a name,
and then use the Element as you need. Select
dozens or hundreds of individual segments
all in an instant! Elements retain their sewing
order, so it is easy to paste them into new design
compositions.
Remove Overlap Stitches
Remove overlapping
stitches to avoid
layering and costly
production issues.
Settings Painter
Copy settings from one segment to another to avoid
repetitive time consuming tasks.
Automatic Text Borders
Instantly and easily add a continuous
border around embroidery lettering in
your design. Choose to display the border
only for a quick way to create outline text.
Drawing Tools
A variety of drawing modes to create artwork with ease- freehand, circle, rectangle, pen-
with Bezier and Quickdraw input modes suitable for beginners and advanced users alike.
Breakup, Offset, Combine
This combination of features is very important and rarely found in any other software.
It is so easy to create embroidery using these features- break up and manipulate segments,
offset them if you need a border or to create a special effect,
and then recombine them after to assign stitch effects.
In order to get control of individual segments, we will
use the “Breakup” feature in Tajima DG/ML by Pulse.
We can now select the segments that represent the letter
“A” and select the “Offset” feature.
We have now produced additional borders around the outer
shape and inner shape of letter.
The result is that we have produced 2 independent segments that have combined
inner and outer shapes, and now we just need to assign stitches
