Oh I suppose I should add why I was trying to get embroidery software when I had no machine. It was for http://www.frogmarch.com/ as we had a logo and the local shirt printing shop were cheap to stitch designs but the setup charge for digitising you design prohibitively expensive. They did say they could use some design files that you had from other companies. I did the design using a 30 day trial of some PC software - put it onto a floppy and took it along to them. It worked ok. The trial software I had did not do type so he added the lettering for me. (Well the trial did do letters but only A, B and C in any one font!)
