Features: Text
The Text features in PCStitch are awesome! You can enter letters, words,
or phrases to your own creations as easily as typing on your keyboard.
Here are two different ways to add letters and words in your patterns:
|
Method 1:  TrueType fonts:
Any TrueType font installed on your computer can be used to add words and phrases to
your designs. TrueType fonts are the same fonts you use in applications such
as Microsoft Word. Simply select the font you want to use, and
the height of each letter. Select the area where you want to insert your letters
and start typing. PCStitch converts your keystrokes into stitched
letters.

It is that easy!
Any TrueType font installed on your computer can be used in PCStitch.

Method 2:  Stitched Fonts:
Stitched Fonts are alphabets that are created specifically for
cross-stitch. Each letter in a stitched font is designed using
any of the available stitch types. You can even use different colored
floss or beads. These alphabets can be simply backstitch letters, or
extravagant letters using all the features of PCStitch. Using Stitched
Fonts in future patterns is as simple as picking your starting position,
then keying letters on your keyboard.

Stitched Fonts are Designed
You can create any type of stitched font using PCStitch. Once you have designed the
letters, use them over and over in any future pattern!

|
Using a Stitched Font
They are used just like TrueType fonts, but instead of being converted, they are
designed. The possibilities are endless! |
