my youngest daughter showed me how to do it waiting for husband to come home as the embroidery design are on his pc and it sitting right next to me I always feel like lap tops have become diary's, and one should not peek, will wait till he gets back form work

Ah, its a laptop your using. I have no idea where screen capture is on one of those.
Ive tried it on my PC and it works ok. After you crop it you can paste it into Thunderbird and send from there.

My thanks for tips on this, I did what earl Smith said and it work a treat. So thanks for that, so simple when you have the knowledge

I get file preview from my Digitizer with each design, however i can see it myself as well in wilcom

Earl Smith;41778 wrote:Jenny, if your colours are changing when "Capture the design as bitmap" within your own program , have you tried doing a screen capture of the whole screen and then cropping the picture in Paint, to just the design. ( Screen capture is on your keyboard) . You should get whats on screen and in the right colours.

Sure! i am agree with you Earl smith. I also use print screen button for different usage and it work good. But some time when i print and past it in paint after crop when i save it in jpeg file then it show me blank preview. I have tried to find this problem but all in vain. Now i use screen capture software. but it is lil bit difficult. Have face any problem like this?

Hi Edward.
Never had a problem with any computer or versions of Windows. Screen capture and then paste into Paint or Corel Draw. Then I save it and if I have to crop and print it, I work with the saved image. Never had any problems.

what software to you have ? there should be a tab under file on most of them that will say asign needles or segements or somthing similar , it should be there with a segement and colour list
