Default Re: Embroidery and other stitching on shirts
We have been using Wilcom ES as well for many years and love it. Importing dxf files from DRAW is a sinch and speeds up the digitizing process tremendously as all you need to do is add start and end points along with stitch specs

The plug in is just meant for small insignificant jobs
I wouldn't go that far. I have seen some top notch work for large runs created with DRAWINGS.

- real embroidery digitizing can only be done by a professional digitizing software
Again this isn't totally accurate. A design digitized by DRAWINGS is still a real digitized design.

However, person using any vector drawing software is at advantage, when it comes to learning to any digitizing software.

The basics are same - however, they do need to practice to learn about the stitch density, underlay and stitch angles before they can really become proficient in embroidery digitizing.
Agree 100%
