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. Before sewing your
project, embroider a trial piece of fabric.
In addition, text created using some
TrueType fonts cannot be converted at all. In
this case, the converted text will be replaced
with a question mark (?), or a warning
message will appear.
