Product Overview

This is a first class product for the HotFix Sequin & Spangle design creation & editing. It contains all the necessary tools to digitize designs starting from raster graphics, vector files, or just creating designs on the fly.

Please note the term HotFix, as it refers to the kind of material with adhesive which is transferred to the garment using a heat press. This type of sequin is not the same kind of material used in embroidery machines. If you want to create designs with sequin on special embroidery machines, please visit the Stitch ERA product page (that sequin is a plug-in for that application).

Among other digitizing tools, this program includes an advanced lettering system compatible with true type fonts. It has an amazing User Interface similar to the new Microsoft Office style with application button and context ribbon bars. The design process is very fast and easy, simulation using the realistic components from our huge library is great, and designs can be edited and personalized at any moment.

Designs can be exported to different motif machines. Please check the compatibility list before purchasing this product (if your machine is not in that list, we will try to develop the required driver).

This amazing system is a sequin specific software (for sequin & spangles) focused in the design creation. Starting from any artwork captured by scanner, from third parties applications or from artwork files; this program is the fastest tool to convert those images into sequin designs. It includes several input methods and fill styles, and it also offers a complete lettering system. While your work is in process, the available design simulation displays a realistic sample of your designs.

Digitizing takes only a few minutes and result is amazing! When the design is ready, it is only necessary to export it to the corresponding file format or output device. HOT FIX SEQUIN ERA supports output to automatic sequin motif machines.

Please check the compatibility list before purchasing this product (if your equipment is not in that list, we will try to develop the required driver).
