Tajima Pulse software

My first post was so successful and so easily fixed my problem I'm inspired to ask another question. (Doing a good job at something only gets you another harder job you know! *grin*) Can the color of the cross hairs when digitizing be changed to something other than black? I'm frequently digitizing black items and when you go to position the cross hairs in the middle of a blob of black you can't see them. It's kind of a PITA. If it's possible..WHERE??? Thanks much!

All of a sudden my right click on my mouse isn't working. I don't *think* I've changed anything. It used to pull up a short cut menu for things like transform, etc...and now it just sort of "blinks" at me. I thought I set up the mouse stuff under Tools/Configuration/User Settings, but I can't seem to find it. Did I imagine that? Did something change in the software? Could it be the right button on my mouse went bad? I've tried a bunch of stuff trying to diagnose the problem but I'm not finding anything. HELP! I miss my right click!

ok i know this is an easy one but i am lost.....how do i do name stacking.....i have about fifty garments that all need different names on them....how do i go about doing it in my software.....i have Tajima illustrator.version 13.....thanks for any tips....

I have been trying to find a clean way of creating applique cut files to run on an IoLine 300 cutter. I cut my share of two and three layer tackle twill patches. To date I have created my artwork in Pulse and transferred it to Corel via Draw Fusion. What I have found of recent is that there is enough variance to cause problems when I use the same artwork to create the applique sew files. Up thru version 4028 the Export applique cut file using the PLT function results in a file which is not processed by the IoLine software. Exporting a DXF file does not do the trick either because all of the layers are blended into a single layer when the IoLine software inputs the fil…

I am new to editing with this software. In the past I have sent everything to our outside digitizer for edits. I would like to learn how to edit small stuff so that I don't have to wait and also to save a little money. One question I have is about reversing the direction of the the stitches. Is there an easy way to do it? Any help would be appreciated.

I go under Tools/ Config/ User setting adjust everything the way i like, but when i restart the program their all back to factory preset. How do i save it the way i want ...Inches to mm, company name,etc.

I am wondering if anyone can answer some questions about using Librarian? When I save a embroidery design, what are the “user string #1-5 for? If I type in notes, then pull up a design, how do I access the notes? Thanks,

I've gone blank. How do I move the start and stop beads once they are set in a embroidery design? I was digitizing an outline around a letter and want to move the start and end points to a different side. I know there is a way, I've just forgotten and can't find it in my notes.

I have had some instances where the contour lines peek out as running stitches around an inside curve. I have a design with a digitized D and O and I can't keep the contour lines where they belong all of the time. I am embroidering on caps. The inset for the contour lines is set at .02mm. The outside inset is fine. How do I move the inside curve inset? I would appreciate any tips.

Since working with Tajima Pulse, some designs do not carry all the .PXF stitch information from the program to the machine when output to the spoiler. If I have worked with a design that I have done a stitch to outline transformation on, or taken a stock design and added text that I have modified via the Properties options, or specifically, done both, I find that the stitch count drops by a significant amount. I would say by 1k on a 14k design for instance, with 14k showing in the program and only 13k transferred to the machine. This particularly happens if I beef up the text for a better result. I have to save the design as a .DST and enter it from a floppy drive to get …

What is the "Paste" button at the button left hand corner of Segment Settings used for?

I understand that Pulse does not support compound paths. Any way I can import an image so that the hollow areas don't show up filled?

I'm trying to digitize a logo that uses a strange font, so I'm digitizing the letters by tracing. I scanned the letterhead and set the jpeg as a backdrop image. How do I stop the backdrop image from disappearing when I zoom in?

I had problems with my software/computer and had to reinstall Tajima Pulse. Now the spooler does not get rid of the file you sent to the machine after the machine accepts it. I have to go into the design que and delete the file before I can send another file. I can not find the place for the setting that changes that. It used to be different before I uninstalled so I know I had changed the setting once and can not find it to do it this time. Help please, it's so annoying!

I need to understand how to load artwork into this embroidery software. For some reason when I try to import artwork, it tells me there is an error and won't let me. I have to copy and paste whatever image I want to work off of.

I was browsing through images to load to practice my digitizing when I noticed the Font folder. I opened it and saw a whole bunch of fonts that I don't have on my drop down menu (baby blanket, beverly, carving, charisma, cola bottle, fine point, humpty dumpty, josephine, rebecca and many more). They all have the extension _fon.pcx. Some of the other fonts that I do have in my drop down menu have this same extension. How can I get these other fonts into my drop down menu so I can use them?

So I've made the move, I'm going to upgrade from Tajima Pulse Illustrator V 13 to Illustrator version 14; When I receive my new software disc and security device, will I need to uninstall my current version of Pulse completely first, or can I install Tajima Illustrator 14 over top? Thanks in advance for your help. Best Regards,

Hi, I have a question. How do I convert a DST (Tajima format) file to PXF? I've done it before but can't remember what I did.thanks I mean a dst file

I'm running some tests on a TCMX embroidery machine with a design using Chenille. I have several blocks with the same color, but the program automatically makes unnecessary thread cuts on every block. What should I do to program this blocks without cutting the thread?

I read about Sequence view in manual. Ant not see this in my Tajima. Where this option& Without this i not check order of layer or reorder digitizied blocks.

I just updated my software and the software will work in the latest version but if I try to go back and use an older version, the software will not open. I was able to use this version before I updated, why can I not use it now?

When I upgraded to Tajima Illustrator Extreme I was upset to find that the End Lock list no longer included Triangle & Diamond, it just had Basic and Line. When I reported it I was questioned why I needed them. Being new to the business it made me wonder how and when I should really be using them. What upset me about the missing diamond was I like to use the diamond at a big size stitch (2 or 3 mm) for locking off temporary tensioning or holding stitches as its easier to cut them out afterwards. The Line lock is my default general purpose lock as I find it useful for hiding in the end of satin / steil. But I also find that it stresses the fabric and can cause a…

I am trying to figure out how to skew or distort segments or groups of segments in version 14 (maestro). I am updating from v9.1 (designer), and am use to just placing my cursor along the edge I want to skew until it turned into an arrow and then left clicking and sliding it until I get the shape I want. This could be done on any of the 4 sides of the segment box. Now, I cannot find how to do this. A simple example would be if I did a horizontal line...just a rectangle, but then I want to slide the right end up while keeping the left side anchored in place. I understand under this scenario that I could move the individual points, but this is a simple item. What if I…
