Editing imported images
For both manual and automatic digitizing
purposes, you may want to crop an image before
digitizing. You can do this within JANOME
Embroidery Software or using a third-party
graphics application. Sometimes, you may want to
save backdrops as separate files after scanning or
cropping.
Cropping images for digitizing
Use Image > Crop Image to crop an image for use with
Photo Click.
JANOME Embroidery Software allows you to crop
images prior to use. Before using bitmap images
for design purposes, crop them to remove
unnecessary detail and save processing time. This
feature is primarily intended for use with the Photo
Click tool. See Creating embroidery from
photographs for details.
Warning With cropped images, the Photo Click
tool produces stitches only in the visible areas of
the image. However, cropped images may produce
unexpected results when used with Click-to-Stitch
or Click-to-Design tools. In this case, the solution
is to edit the image in a third-party graphics
application and remove the unwanted areas of the
image altogether. See
applications for details.
To crop an image for digitizing
1 Scan or load the image you want to use. See
images into EasyDesign
2 Select the image and a cropping tool:
Select Image > Crop Image > Rectangle and click
