Embroidery digitizing may seem as though it’s only basic lettering or monogramming that’s been keyed from preloaded images, but there is an art to digitizing that makes using an experienced digitizer a good option if you want a professional job done.
Often embroiderers consider whether they should learn how to digitize themselves or outsource the task.
The Digitizing Process
The process of digitizing high quality running designs is an art that is acquired through training, lots of practice and understanding the fundamental concepts of graphics. By outsourcing your tasks to an experience digitizer you are using the skills of someone who has hours or even years of experience.
Although technology does offer certain automatic features such as “auto digitizing” and “auto vectoring” these characteristics alone may not be sufficient for a high quality finish. Even though the software can convert pretty simple graphics into fundamental designs, for a novice, the end result may not be as polished as you would hope. But with the help of an experienced digitizer, the characteristics bring tools to quickly render limited areas of art into stitches and speed up the entire digitizing process.
Digitizing Criteria
If you are a beginner embroiderer, you should consider the benefits of using an experienced digitizer who has the experience and know-how to produce top quality products. By outsourcing the digitizing task, you can save time; improve quality and add profitability to your business. Embroidery is controlled by design, thread condition, machine condition and operator abilities and an experienced digitizer will be able to achieve greater production results.
Criteria for Outsourcing
When you consider outsourcing to an experienced Embroidery Digitizer, keep in mind that they probably have the ability to produce one or two left chest designs hourly, for example, and according to size and design complexity. So that would be about 3 to 6 designs daily. In comparison a novice digitizer may only produce 1 to 3 designs per day.
Orders that vary material or utilization of designs require loads of editing in order to achieve the finest end result. An experienced digitizer, used to processing large orders, will be able to handle these designs efficiently and quickly.
Whether you work for yourself or own an embroidery shop, you can benefit from using an experienced digitizer who will help to dazzle your customers and create fantastic designs.
