Embroidery Studio E4 is set up on a modular basis.  The basic system gives you everything other software companies promise.  When you are ready, you may add individual Elements to tailor the software for your individual business needs. Add what you only need now, and come back later when your business dictates it.  With Wilcom, you have option of, Basic E4 Designing, or E4 Designing with as many Elements as You need.

 

Your basic E4 Designing does everything that other software does, or says they will do, and more, and is integrated with Corel 21. so you gain a graphic program as well.  E4 Designing’s integration with Corel 21, allows you to move from a powerful graphic program to the powerful Digitizing program that Wilcom offers, and now you can use several of the Corel features on the Embroidery side of the program as well.  E4 Designing will do a great job on your corporate logos, both with the automatic process and the manual digitizing.  You will have 200 fonts, four of which are designed to be an eighth of an inch or less, and six that are for Puff Embroidery. Wilcom’s fonts have always been considered the best.  You will find that they may be used with no editing.  Designing contains a Full Monogramming package, and your basic Team Name Element that will allow you take care of Team, Group, and even Hospital, orders without having to retype the names and risk a mis-spell.  You also may bring in your DST, CND, PES  and other machine Formats, and modify them..  They will become completely flexible and you may change sizes, add new lettering for that new event, and edit the design to your hearts content, even though it was not created in Wilcom’s “Mother” language! E4 Design’s new features also include an internal data base that allows you to catalog and retrieve your designs, Ideal for keeping up with your customer’s needs, as they return.  also Ideal for saving those special parts of designs that can be used again in another job.The automatic digitizing is simple, and will give you the same results as the digitizers overseas produce.   You will scan a clean version of your customers logo into the Corel part of the Wilcom program, turn it to a vector image, then convert it to embroidery,  and in less than 10 minutes you have the logo ready for embroidery.  You will tell the software what fabric you are using, and while it calibrates the stitches, it will give you the correct underlays, pull comp, and densities for that fabric.  Because of the integrations with Corel X8, (This is not a Plug-in), your “automatic” design will look good and stitch well.  All of the automatic stitching can be edited.  Which means, that through editing the design, you may put your own signature on it. Add blends, layered fills, change stitch direction for affect, and lighten densities where needed. For many, using the Automatic features is a great start to an even greater design. Get the basics done perfectly through the automatic features, and then digitize the other parts manually.

E4 Designing has all the manual digitizing functions that you will need for your everyday work, and it is user friendly.  You will be able to create your stitches; the running stitch, the column or satin stitch, and the Fill or Tatami, easily, and when you move a mark or node the stitches will follow.  So you will see immediately what you have created and/or what edits you have made.  You will also have complete control of the length of your stitches, the density of your stitches, your underlays, and the patterns created in your fills.  Together with a little training, you will be able to be as creative as you like. 

Give us a call at Balboa, and we will open up our Wilcom Tour for you to view free of charge,
and see that you get a current Price List.

      Thank you for your comments, I am pleased to hear that you “you have learned so much”! The videos in the package will not be taken from you, they are there perpetually for you to view and Learn. However, the new Webinars, and Question and Answer Sessions each month, along with real-time support when you have questions, is what will need to be renewed each year. Your cost to renew is just $100. Thank you again. Lee
