I was wondering if you can export the pattern to like pdf files or word documents. I tried to export a pattern and it was just a bmg picture not the pattern, Any help would be appreciated. As far as i know it is pcstich standard version 7 i believe.

You can get free virtual printers like PrimoPDF at http://www.primopdf.com/ for this purpose. Just install the program and anytime you print, it will show up in the list of available printers. Select it and print. The result will be a PDF file of your pattern and key and everything else instead of a physical piece of paper.

Hi! Primopdf program will not download on my XP version. I found "cutePDF" writer program. I haven't had time to try this yet, but this is a free downloadable program too.

My brother recommended me to use this PDF Creator. I’m totally satisfied with it.

There are a wide variety of PDF virtual printers out there. Most will give good results in this case. They may vary in the size of the PDF file created and may have options for the clarity of the images (clearer -> bigger files).

It's nice that there is so much to choose from. There are also free products that will convert from a PDF to a word or other type formats. Now you can go both ways!
