11.13 Creating lettering

Lettering is always embroidered in one color. To embroider single letters or single words in another color,
every letter or every word has to be selected individually and placed in the embroidering area.
Lettering can be positioned within the hoop as you like. When the embroidery motif is positioned outside the
embroidering area, the hoop is outlined in red on the display. With the hoop selection it can be checked
whether or not the embroidery motif can be embroidered in another hoop. When the lettering does not fit in
any hoop, two single words can be combined and positioned below each other as the following example will
show.
