Printing Out Embroidery Design Collection

This article is from ATW...

"Is it possible to get a print out of the designs/collections that we download ?"

Great question! I would suggest you don't make a printout of your design collection. It takes up a lot of space. Even printing out a piece of paper with the designs available becomes difficult when you have a few thousand designs. And there are probably people here who have 100,000 designs on their computer.

And the cost of even 10,000 designs printed out and place neatly into a series of notebooks would start to add up in buying notebooks, paper, and ink cartridges. So it comes down to a couple of ways that this can be done electronically.

I'll be releasing a video shortly showing how to make a design catalog using several different pieces of software available at prices ranging from $20 and up. Once you see the capabilities of each of these software packages, you can make a choice for what you would like best. From watching the video - you'll already know the basics of making the program work.

(Release date for the new video will be announced here in the next few days. Members can read an extensive article on this topic on ATW now.)

Printing of Designs...
When I started embroidering I asked the same question and yes it does take up a lot of binders, but, if you really want to do it I found a shared program on the internet called PCAT95. The url below is for the free download and it explains what each does. I am not a big shareware type of person so I was skeptical at first but it does work and I've been using it for quite awhile.
