Standard Alphabets
Standard Alphabets
The samples below show all alphabets included as standard with your ES 9 software. For best results when stitching, do not exceed the recommended maximum or minimum sizes. Recommended maximum and minimum heights refer to UPPER CASE letters. Some lower case letters e.g. a and c are about 70% the height of a capital letter. Thus you may need to make these characters larger than the recommended minimum. Small, narrow letters may not require automatic underlay depending on size and fabric. If applied, the underlay may show outside the stitched columns. The recommended stitch method for each alphabet is indicated. This setting defines how letters in a sequence are to be joined i.e. Closest Join (CJ), Bottom Join (BJ), As Digitized (AD). Some As Digitized alphabets also need to be applied with Original Values e.g. all appliqu alphabets, where values are important, and others like Kidnap , where open stitching is used. You can create special characters in each alphabet by holding down the Alt key on your keyboard and typing 0 (zero), its code, using the numbers on the keypad. For example, to type with the code 234, type Alt + 0234. The accented letter will appear when you release the Alt key.
Note Not all characters are available in all alphabets.
