a Note:
Text created using certain TrueType fonts
may not be converted correctly into an
embroidery pattern due to the shape of the
character. These characters cannot be
embroidered correctly. Test sew before
embroidering on your project.
In addition, text created using some
TrueType fonts cannot be converted at all.
