When you come to output your design to machine file, make sure you are using the correct file format. EmbroideryStudio currently supports the following...

Machine format

File format

Barudan FDR-3

Barudan FDR-3 Chenille Combination

Barudan FDR-II Twin Sequin

Schiffli

ESS

SWF

DST

SWF Twin Sequin

EBD

Tajima

Tajima TBF

When you select Dahao multi-sequin DST as you output file format, the Drop Sequin functions are inserted according to Dahao multi-sequin requirements. Dahao control panels include a protocol to interpret this encoding. Tajima machines, on the other hand, strictly follow the DST file specification.

Note: For machine formats that have no sequin capability, the sequin palette will display. However, if you attempt to create a sequin object, fixing stitches will be digitized without sequin drops. No sequins appear.

Create a hard copy of your production worksheet to provide thread and sequin information for the machine operator.
