To create a layout based on a template...

1If you are creating a design from scratch, use the File > New from Template command.

2Select a kiosk template if you have set one up. For example, you may set up your template to include a stitching boundary defining the area to work within, say, for cap designs. This can be drawn in CorelDRAW Graphics. You might also want to include a product image.

3Select the Lettering tool and create the text you require. Adjust settings such as font, dimensions, etc.

Note: To ensure that text remains within the allowable boundary, it is safest to use the Fixed Line baseline.

4Change thread color as desired.

5Set the lettering object position to zero (0,0) as shown. This will ensure that the lettering layout automatically centers itself in the allowable stitching area.

6When you are happy with the result, click Save.

The file must be saved to the EmbroideryStudio 2025 Designs folder:

C:\Program Files\Wilcom\EmbroideryStudio 2025\Kiosk\Designs

The design will appear in the kiosk design chooser when you next run it.
