 Hi Joanne, like you, I too have an embroidery business; we also do thermal printing, sublimation and just looking to get into screen-printing as well. I use Adobe CS2 and sometimes when I need to I mess with the fonts in Illustrator to achieve what I want (For thermal printing).
I also always try and use FREE FONTS!
Re' the automatic font setting on your software for embroidery. I would digitise the font myself, it gives you more control over what you’re stitching. It’s quite easy to do if you use column stitch with normal fill inclinations, you can adjust the density as you require. I would suggest that you type something out in your 'autofont' and then look at it in edit mode to see how the letters are digitised and apply that to what you want in the 'Algerian' font.
Koeiekat, thanks for the info, I can generally find similar fonts to the commercial ones but on this occasion I couldn’t, the only thing that I could get was 'Algerian'. (Always nice to have an alternative.)
Regards
Gary
P.S. Joanne, I also have to admit that whilst I understand some of what Koeiekat was explaining, most of it is a little above my head as well! (The fonts looked very very similar to me)
