Worksheets

Select the format of the worksheets. Choose a full worksheet for each embroidery, or display several embroideries on each sheet.

Design Scale

Select 25%, 50%, 75%, 100% or ’to fit’ scaling when printing your embroidery. This is how large the embroidery will print compared to the real size of a stitched out embroidery. Use a reduced Design Scale if you want to ensure that the worksheet fits on one page. Look at the print preview pane to see how many pages will be printed.

Grid

This determines whether or not a grid will be printed with the embroidery. If you turn this off you will still get a rectangle representing the hoop.

Select to flip the embroidery for being stitched in reverse, or for felting effects.

Preview Pane

The preview pane displays the embroidery as it would appear when printed. Other information, such as the Dimension, Color Information, Notes, Settings and Technical Information, is shown depending on the choices made in the Worksheets section of the Print dialog box.

The print preview toolbar offers you options to zoom in and out of the page, and to show multiple pages Multiple_Pages_icon04468.jpg or individual pages Individual_page_icon.jpg. If there are multiple pages, step through them with Next Page Next_Page_icon.jpg and Previous Page Previous_page_icon.jpg.

If you are trying to preview an embroidery that does not lie entirely inside its hoop then the preview will not be shown and a message will appear instead of the Print Preview. Solve this by changing the hoop size or adjusting the embroidery so that it fits the hoop.
