Embrilliance AlphaTricks
AlphaTricks is a module in Embrilliance that is designed to simplify the use of fonts/alphabets embroidery designs. The main functions are managing/organizing all types of fonts and font mapping.
Debbie will teach you how to import your existing font designs and map each letter to a keyboard stroke. This eliminates the process of manually adding one letter at a time, reordering them, and adjusting spacing for proper alignment. Alpha Tricks will do it automatically.
You will also learn how to organize, categorize, and filter all your font collections to find a font quickly.
You must have the current version of the Embrilliance and AlphaTricks software installed before class, plus a working knowledge of your computer and basic software.
