Embird 2019
Embird is an embroidery software for clothing and items
Embird is a professional application for creating machine embroidery diagrams and designs, as well as conventional cross-embroidery. The program can greatly facilitate the work on creating embroidery schemes, as well as change the ready-made schemes, glue and separate them and print them out. The program can save diagrams in PES, HUS, JEF, DST, VIP formats, compatible with most sewing and embroidery machines. It is also possible to export to vector and raster formats.
The program consists of several components. The main thing is Embird Manager - this is the working area of the program, here you can perform basic operations with schemes, view in several modes (normal, 1:1, 3D stitches, etc.), convert schemes and so on. From the same window you can switch to other tools such as the editor, cloud browser and Cross Stitch tool. In the editor you can edit the scheme, here you can select elements, assign colors, numbers and stitch sequences, merge and separate schemes, change size and location, mirror parts of schemes, view in 3D or 1:1 scale and import projects from Embird Studio, Embird Cross Stitch and Sfumato Stitch. Embird supports Amazon and Azure cloud services and allows you to work with them through a cloud browser, so you can work on your projects without being tied to a single machine. Embird Cross Stitch is a handy application - a plugin to the main program to create simple diagrams for cross-embroidery. Here schemes are created as in a graphical editor, just by drawing with the mouse. There are a large number of cross-making tools, a choice of more than 60 stitch crosses, a choice of colors and brush thicknesses, simple basic shapes and several preview modes.
"Embird 2019 facilitates the creation, modification, and printing of professional embroidery designs, with compatibility for most sewing and embroidery machines."
