With
Punto software you can start from
a sketch, scan it and then change
it at will. You can create new artworks
on your personal computer and then
mix them with existing drawings
and text. Trying all the different
combinations of shapes, embroidery
effects and colours has never been
so easy. You can use drawings created
with many graphic applications (Adobe
Illustrator, Corel CorelDRAW!, Macromedia
FreeHand, and others), and then
apply the embroidery effects and
Punto will calculate the stitches
for you.

You
can automatically convert a scanned
image, create text with fancy perspectives,
use thousands of fonts and clip
arts. Unlike other systems, you
don’t have to digitize your work
again, just apply the embroidery
effects to automatically calculate
the stitches. Punto has a wide range
of tools. Different kinds of pens
and geometric tools can be used
to draw freehand shapes, rectangles,
circles and other designs.

You can apply many different kinds of embroidery
effects to your drawings.
Each effect can be customized giving you
an unlimited range of choices. Running,
satin, fill, random stitches, backgrounds,
tiles, curved fill, variable density, multicolour
motifs, bean stitches and pull compensation
are just some of the effects that Punto
can create for you.
You can change any effect at any time. You
can duplicate, change and mix together different
designs. Drawings and embroideries can be
easily enlarged, rotated or slanted. Punto
will automatically recalculate the new stitches
producing the same level of quality.
|
You can easily create monograms
with Punto fonts or you can apply
your embroidery effects to thousands
of already made fonts and create
your embroideries without drawing
a single line. You can read embroideries
from other systems and write them
on disks, paper tapes or send them
directly to your embroidery machine.
Punto supports all the most common
embroidery standards.
Punto designing capabilities allow
full control of the designing process,
merging powerful and intuitive vector
graphics tools with professional
and productive embroidery features.
