Team names with the pre digitized font

[sevigine]

When using team names with the pre digitized font " Arial" the stitch files created all have the center offsetto the right . I then have to open each file and use the "Design center" on the home ribbon to correct the problem. once saved the file then leaves out all trims when run on the machine. when I open the file it shows all the trims are there. Is this just a setting I need to configure for centering and trims?

Al, which method are you setting up? Are you doing a separate DST per name? I used this feature a couple of weeks ago to help someone on a job with 92 names, and they were all centered. It wasn?t the Arial font though.

When you set it up, look in the panel on the right, change the Profile to Tajima Standard. If I remember right, when I did my 92-name setup it was on Generic, and that did mess up the trims on the finished stitch file. They were still all centered though.

Try the Profile and see if that helps, and of course make sure the initial text is centered *before* activating the NameDrop feature.

Yes, the behavior is set to "center" the Output Profile is set to "Tajima standard". I am importing the list from a tab delimited txt file. I checked the import file for extra spaces and did not find any.

Good note: The imported file names now populate

I just checked the center of the original and it was off. I set the start and end stitches on the original for some reason and it was not centered causing the the output files to be offset. I still get a long stitch from center to first stitch in the output files, is there a way to remove that?

Are you getting this long stitch... 

a) on the screen but not on the sewout? 

b )on the screen and the sewout? 

c) not on the screen but yes on the sewout?

Al, one thing that can go unnoticed in those screen shots of the Machine Profile and Code Interpreter I referred you to is that those settings are all in mm. If your window shows points instead of mm, 1 mm = 10 pts, so the 12.1 mm stitch length is 121 pts and so forth.
But, it looks like you either were in mm, or figured out that tweak. If not, instead of long stitches you?d be having a trim after almost every stitch!
