Adding texture to embroidery is a great way to make it visually more exciting. DigitizerPro has more than 130 fill stitch variations to choose from. The program also includes a great selection of motif fills for creating delicate, filigree styles.

DigitizerPro's unique applique feature works at the touch of a button to create perfect applique. And it automatically generates placement lines, tacking stitches and border stitches.

DigitizerPro can create running stitch, satin stitch, and motif run outlines for a perfect edge or to add extra detail to a design. You have full control over stitch length, width and density.

With DigitizerPro you can resize designs and maintain their original stitch density. The program adjusts the stitch count and underlay automatically so the finished design looks as good as the original. You can import designs in all major machine formats to resize for your chosen hoop or project.

Designs can be rotated by a single degree to get the perfect position for your project. Stitches can also be angled within a motif to add shading and depth. With DigitizerPro you can duplicate designs and mirror them, or use the "copy" and "paste" tools to create large embroideries. Now you can easily create a range of designs based around a theme, with matching corner and border patterns.

Create realistic looking natural objects such as flowers and animals using stitch blending and shading. All sorts of rich colors can be created in this way and the feather edge feature means you can achieve natural looking effects and recreate the look of hand stitching.

Add text or monograms to your projects and create personal items or gifts. Text can be manipulated in different directions, stretched, skewed or curved, and the program includes a great selection of ready-made borders to add the finishing touch. Choose from over 50 pre-digitized fonts, plus you can create additional ones using the TrueType fonts installed on your computer.

Adjusting embroidery for fabrics that stretch or distort is easy using the "stretchiness allowance" and "pull compensation" features. You can select the type of fabric and the degree of stretch and DigitizerPro will do the rest, including automatically adjusting the underlay.
