Use Combine All 
to merge all the embroideries on the work area into a single embroidery, and fix lettering, SuperDesigns and Frames as stitches.
It is usually recommended to use the Combine option in Export
when creating an embroidery file for stitching out. This method allows you to retain the separate embroideries, lettering, and so on of your multipart design as adjustable elements in the .vp4 project file.
After the embroideries are combined, notes and settings from all the embroideries are also combined in the Notes and Settings boxes. Any overlapping stitches are removed if the option is selected in Preferences.
If more than one copy of the same embroidery is combined, it is helpful to ColorSort
. However, you may prefer not to ColorSort
if you plan to use the Split Project Wizard to split the embroidery for multiple hoopings.
Embroideries are combined (and therefore stitched out) in the order that they were loaded into mySewnet™ Embroidery. If you copy an embroidery after other files have been opened, then paste it back in, the second copy will be stitched after all the other embroideries. To change the order use the Stitch Order commands.
