I need help with Brother Design 10 or suggested alternative programs that meet desired shortcut.

I have been using Brother PE Design 10 to digitize and when I have transparent PNGs I import into my template, a black background automatically applies. I only see an option to cut out the black background by manually drawing the outline of the image. The auto-outline button works but is terribly inaccurate and rough.

Now I am looking for an alternative software to make the process quicker and easier. Any suggestions that meet the criteria? Or is there any way to do what I desire with the current software I’m using.

Making outlines like triple run

I currently use hatch 3 and I’m a beginner at digitizing and have made designs but how exactly do I do a triple run stitch without any jumps or trims? Also how to change from a satin stitch fill to outline stitch like triple run?

Posted the wing a few months back

Finally got around to finishing, left the color pallet on so you can see what i used. 120hrs of digitizing. I have already tested everything except the head and it looks perfect.

Help with tiny digitizing.

Help TIA! This thing is 21mm tall. Needs to go on a fleece jacket with a doctor’s name and credentials. Tips please? Satin stitch is 1mm with center run. Tatami is 3.5mm with spacing at 0.4mm. What would you do differently? I planned to use 60w thread and 70/10 needles.

PE Design Next software customer help?

I hope someone can help… I have a customer using “PE-Design Next“ software for her brother invinity embroidery machine. She purchased an embroidery design from me but is having trouble opening it. I’ve sold this design many times with no issues at all. PES and DST formats are included (7 formats total).

Any idea why she may not be able to open the file? I digitize in the newest version of Hatch. TIA. If anyone here uses the same software would they be willing to test the file for me? I have a HappyJapan commercial machine and a brother single needle. It’s the software I do not have to trouble shoot for her…

Offering BX format

For those of you who sell your digital files… I get a ton of requests for bx format which I do not offer. I digitize in hatch and Wilcom. I assume bx is for embrilliance users and I have no experience with embrilliance. Do any of you offer the bx format and how do I offer this since hatch and Wilcom don’t export bx files?

Question!!

So I’ve digitized a couple of designs but there’s a specific design that just comes out different each time I throw it on the machine! Could it be poor digitizing or could it be that my machine is too cheap?

As you can see lines don’t line up… I’ve gotten other designs to go pretty decently. Any tips would be great.

Also if you have any tips to make it look cleaner I’m all ears

Embroidery software

I am new to embroidery and find this niche fascinating. I want to make digitizing my passive income. Would love to invest in a software. Can y'all please introduce me to the various softwares you use and the amount paid for it. Please indicate if it's a one time payment or yearly subscription. Thank you.

Looking for a reliable and consistent digitizer

Like the title says I am looking for a digitizer. I own a small business and send out 150+ designs a year for digitizing and am having inconsistencies with my current digitizer. Looking for a better relationship.
