Abstract: A computer is operated to produce an object-based design description file for an embroidery pattern from a vector-based stitch file describing the pattern as a sequence of stitches. The stitch file is analyzed to identify the stitch points qualifying as embroidery edge points at which the stitch direction substantially reverses. A list of these edge points is produced and the stitch file is further analyzed to identify groups of successive edge points in the list wherein the edge points of each group define an embroidery region of area filling type stitches. An object describing the respective embroidery region is then generated from the co-ordinate positions of edge points in a group.

Abstract: A method for embroidering includes receiving a digitized representation of an image, determining grain structures for a plurality of locations in the digitized representation, the plurality of locations including a first location and a second location, embroidering a representation of the first location using cross stitch patterns, when a grain structure for the first location indicates a bi-directional grain structure, and embroidering a representation of the first location using uni-directional stitch patterns, when the grain structure for the first location indicates a uni-directional grain structure.

Abstract: A software program for analyzing an embroidery design of stitches which design will be used by an embroidery machine to create an embroidered fabric. Grid software divides the embroidery design to be analyzed into a plurality of grid sections. Identifying software identifies each grid section having a stitch which is partially or completely underlying another stitch. Modification software removes underlying stitches or a portion thereof in each identified grid section. The size of each grid section may be increased or decreased in proportion to a stretch of the thread to be used to create the embroidered fabric.

Abstract: A method and system using a novel user display. The user interface device includes a display for a multiple-file, multiple-section or multiple-hoop embroidery designs. The display is coupled to a micro processing device such as a microprocessor, microcomputer, or the like. The display also has a representation a stitch on a first axis of the display. The display also shows a property of the stitch on a second axis of the display, where the second axis intersects the first axis. The property is section identifier, filename, or hoop position. Other features can also be included depending upon the application.

Abstract: It is determined whether a quilt design is applicable to paper piecing by determining whether all pieces of the quilt design are finally separated by separating each piece one after another by one straight demarcation line. When it is determined that the quilt design is applicable to paper piecing, demarcation lines that do not intersect other demarcation lines and that divide the quilt design into two blocks that each include a plurality of the pieces are selected. The quilt design is modified by extending the arbitrarily selected demarcation line, and deleting all demarcation lines that exist in one of blocks divided by the extended demarcation line.

Abstract: Image data is converted into a mosaic image formed from blocks that are elongated in a stitching direction. In the mosaic image, blocks adjacent in the direction perpendicular to the stitching direction, that is, vertically adjacent blocks, are shifted out of alignment in the stitching direction. A thread color is set for each of the blocks, and embroidery data is produced accordingly. When embroidery patterns are sewn using this embroidery data, lines in the perpendicular direction will not stand out because blocks adjacent in the perpendicular direction are shifted out of alignment in the stitching direction. Also, because the blocks are shortened in the perpendicular direction, the resolution is enhanced and lines in the stitch direction will also not stand out.

Abstract translation: 图像数据被转换成由在拼接方向上伸长的块形成的马赛克图像。 在马赛克图像中，在与拼接方向垂直的方向（即，垂直相邻的块）相邻的块在拼接方向上偏离对准。 为每个块设置线条颜色，并相应地生成绣花数据。 当使用此刺绣数据缝制刺绣图案时，垂直方向上的线条将不会突出，因为在垂直方向上相邻的块在拼接方向上移出对齐位置。 此外，由于块在垂直方向上缩短，分辨率提高，并且线迹方向上的线也不会突出。

Abstract: A method of changing the density of an embroidery stitch group for use with an electronically controlled embroidery machine. The type of stitch is first recognized, then its points and locations and the penetration point of the inside line and the outline of the stitch is determined. Stitches in the closest relative lines are then copied, moved or removed to increase or decrease the density of the stitch group.
