I am stitching the Brush Script2 font straight out of DS Pro+ (version 7)at .5" on a stable tricot with a good quality cutaway mesh style backing and it looks like crap (sorry) I changed the desity to 3.8 from the 4 it was at and it isn't a smooth satiny look at all. It is bumpy and has stragly looking threads, not a nice smooth column look to it at all. Please help me with this. I am trying to put a couple names on some jackets for the coach's. The logo's turned out amazing and I would hate for the jacket to be ruined by some horrible looking text on their names!! Thanks

You might increase the pull comp and go higher on the density to maybe 5 or 6. If the stitches are bumpy I think you have too many trying to stitch in one place.

What underlay are you using. I find for me a zig zag 25 pt , 70% ,seems to help hold the threads up for a nice finish. And on the larger type I will add a center line. My standard density is 5. Try a pull comp of 110% with a 5 to 10 pt width.
Also on the machine set-up try 103 for your thread setting.Gabi<br />Gabi Kat Embroidery Emporium<br />Tucson, AZ

Debbie, you should be using Auto Density on just about all your fonts until you have a good grasp of the mechanics of how to digitize small lettering.
Also make sure you have Short Stitches turned off. I know that in the Design Shop version 9, it is defaulted "on". I turn this off on every customer I visit. (With their permission of course.)
Also, don't forget that when you type in a letter height of .5, that is the size for capital letters and that means that the lowercase letters will be much, much smaller. Make sure your lowercase letters aren't going below the recommended size in the code sheets.
