Thank you so much! I've been in touch with Embrilliance customer service and they refuse to help customers learn how to do this unless they can prove they have been in business selling fonts. It's insane considering that we've already paid them for their software. Do I need to have more than 1 character in the name for each letter for the lower case? I see that you have a letter u after each uppercase letter.
Thank you very much for this tutorial. I am trying to digitize Greek characters using SA3, but I am not sure how to extract the characters from a free true type font so that I can digitize and publish them the way you showed us in this video.
I CANNOT thank you enough for this!!! I have been attempting digitizing fonts with a line and fill... ugh. Thank you so much for being the only person I have found that doesn't gatekeep digitizing fonts!
Hi Julie i love your videos . I have made a jpeg alphabet font of my choice and imported into stitch artist 3 i started with the letter A and digitized it and hit branching when i start the letter B it is not numbering correctly it keeps wanting to be connected to A the letter B is number 1:5 instead of number 2 how do you get each letter to number themselves correctly? Also do you teach a course on stich artist 3 that is what im wanting to learn i have essentials and enthusiast and just about every embrillance upgrade they have im wanting to learn how to digitize correctly.
Well - you can't convert TTF fonts to Embroidery fonts. The only way to create a BX font in Embrilliance is to digitize it manually. So if you want to convert a TTF to an embroidery font the best way to do it is to type it out in a graphics program (like Photoshop) and then save it as an image. Then you would digitize it as I'm showing in the video. You can use your TTF fonts installed on your computer within Embrilliance. They come in as objects and you can apply fills or column stitches to them if you have StitchArtist. But applying these fills can yield mixed results depending on the complexity of the font. Also - you can't export them as a BX font if you build your font in this manner.
This is so helpful! I'm working on saving my native bx font I created. I can see the preview in my font list but the dialog box to save it as bx for my customers doesn't pop up. Even after clicking the copyright button. Any suggestions?
Hello! Can you tell me at minute 2:51 what shortcut did you use to combine all the details of the letter O into one like the letter E you did? thanks and hope you receive a response soon.
Takes me back 30 yrs ago when we programmed engraving fonts. Makes me want to play again. Thank you for sharing.
This is super helpful! Thanks so much!
Can you do a video on spacing the letters correctly if you have a script font or a wonky playful font?

This is such a fantastic explanation, thank you so much!
Thanks so much. It definitely took me a while to figure it out.

I had this problem. I think I might have had some empty columns inside each of my letters.
