		Creative DRAWings XII
	
	
		Creative DRAWings® XII represents the most advanced technology in the embroidery design field today
 
		Creative DRAWings® software is a unique software solution which allows you to create designs easily and fast, either from scratch or by using vector images or even bitmap images and stitch files. It is equally perfect for novices as well as experienced users who may use it in combination with their existing software solution. Creative DRAWings® can be used for graphics designing, textile and screen printing, embroidery, monogramming as well as computerized quilting.
 
		With innovative features that can easily transform your creative ideas into beautiful embroidery, Creative DRAWings® is the perfect embroidery software match for everyone. Creative DRAWings® is not like other embroidery software on the market. It is designed to do the "thinking", allowing your creative ideas to flow free. That means you don’t have to worry about the technical issues in creating your embroidery design. And with all of the added features in Version 11, the possibilities are unlimited.
	
	
		Introducing the new patent pending Sketch stitch
	
	
	
		Our newest addition to our embroidery software is the patent pending Sketch stitch technique. With Sketch, a bitmap image can be transformed into a charcoal sketch with just a black thread or an assortment of gray threads. The technique is tailored for use mostly on white fabric and covers roughly 20% of the area, making it versatile for embroidery on delicate materials like t-shirts. Reversed versions of Sketch on dark fabrics is also supported. This added feature expands the range of customizable options for our valued users.
	
	
	
	
	
	
	
	
	
	
	
	
	
	
	
	
	
		Override default machine selection when stitch                   files .pes, .jef, .jef+ are loaded
	
	
		For those who frequently switch between machines, the "Override default machine selection from stitch file data" option is a valuable tool. By toggling this feature on, the default machine will automatically change, based on the imported stitch file. So, if for example, a .pes file is loaded, the machine will switch to a Brother model. This saves time and eliminates the need for manually adjusting settings before embroidering.
	
	
		Bar-code support in Printouts
	
	
		The Printout feature of Creative DRAWings v. XII includes a barcode so that embroidery machines which support this feature can quickly load designs just by scanning the barcode code on the software’s Printout. This streamlines the production process, saving time and increasing efficiency for industrial embroidery operations. In addition to design information, the barcode can also contain stitch count and color change data for even more versatile usage.
