Wilcom ES 45 Creative Digitizing
A challenge for all digitizers is to be creative! With business demands focusing on machine time reduction and minimal stitches, the drive to develop unique, innovative embroidery design concepts is sometimes lost in the busy design room.
Armed with the right tools such as Wilcom's ES 45, that creative process can be simplified, easy to learn and powerful to use. Wilcom ES 45 offers the digitizer a creative alternative to standard digitizing and contains the full power of Wilcom's Lettering, Editing and Digitizing packages.
Your software working together
Vector files are a smart way to create your embroidery designs. Unlike conventional pixel images such as .BMP, .JPG and .PNG files, vector graphics such as .EPS, .EMF and .DXF files are object based graphics and have superior quality.
You can quickly convert inserted vector objects to embroidery objects in Wilcom or even Copy & Paste your artwork directly from CorelDRAW® or Adobe Illustrator®.
