Why are your responding to a question in the alt.sewing.mach-embroider newsgroup if you have no clue what machine embroidery design formats and digitizing software are????

Really? You do realize the whole "Lord" & "God" things are nothing but superstitious mythology, don't you?

Does "F." stand for Freekingstoopid?
