I am trying to take a picture and make a pattern and it has a face in it and I can't seem to make the pattern in the face area not look all mushy I kind of want to see the face so I can cross stitch it and have it be neat and defined. Any suggestions?
And Also it would be really helpful for me if there was a manual I could read about the program it would make it all less over whelming...
If there is a place where I can get the whole manual I would appreciate it.
Thank you

There is no manual, just the online tutorial and helps.

I recommend you look through these posts. There are many tips on how to import a photo and the best ideas to get the effect you want. One thing is necessary - be prepared to play with what PCStitch gives you. It is NOT the final product, just the first cut.

Thank you Diane I appreciate your help. Here is another question for you...is there anyway to print the underlay as a pattern?
It looks just like what I am looking for as a pattern and I can't figure out a way.

I have no idea. I never use the underlay. All I can suggest is wherever you got the underlay, print it directly.

You might try to zoom into the facial area to place the stitches. It makes it much easier to see.
