(0 reviews)

In machine embroidery digitizing software Tajima DG/ML by Pulse, there is a number of pre-installed embroidery thread charts however there are times when you need to create a custom chart with different thread thicknesses and or colors 

Embroidery Thread Charts and Thread Palettes

Embroidery Thread charts are a collection of thread and color information. Tajima DG/ML by Pulse has thread charts installed that contain information on threads from many thread manufacturers. Threads from a selected thread chart are displayed on the lower right-hand side of the Tajima DG/ML by Pulse workspace. Clicking the plus (+) sign at the edge of the embroidery thread chart list will allow you to change the selected thread chart for the current embroidery design. How this is implemented in practice can be seen in our catalog of Christmas machine embroidery designs. Since it is for festive winter projects the widest palette of thread colors is used.
