There are pros and cons to Chroma’s auto digitizing feature. To show you the main differences between auto and manual digitizing, we’ll go through both digitizing processes from start to finish, and then embroider our designs for a true, side by side comparison. Here’s what you’ll need: Chroma Digitizing software USB Mighty hoops Cutaway stabilizer Polo shirts Ricoma MT-1501 embroidery machine Auto digitizing is available on all Chroma tiers, including Inspire, Plus and Luxe. However, the types of available stitches, such as satin, complex fill and run stitches, vary based on the level of software you have. To use auto-digitizing, simply import your design into Chroma, click on the prompt that appears on your screen and watch as the software automatically converts your file into a series of stitches that you can save as a DST file in seconds. Auto-digitizing is a great option for beginners as it does not require you to have any graphic design experience. It's a quick, easy and efficient tool to use for simple designs that do not require a lot of precision. With that in mind, it shouldn’t be solely relied upon to create intricate designs. For example, we noticed some key differences when comparing the auto-digitized design to the manually digitized design. The former showed signs of puckering and open gaps between the stitches, whereas the latter did not. In this case, the puckering was caused by the angle of the stitches, stitch density and pull compensation that was automatically chosen by the software. When manually digitizing a file, you can adjust these settings to avoid puckering. Auto-digitizing also doesn’t overlap stitches, which is the reason why there were gaps between the letters of the design, the front of the football helmet and the border. In addition to the lack of overlapping stitches, the auto digitized design doesn’t look as professional compared to the one done manually. This is because it doesn’t have a clean border around the perimeter. To do this, you would have to manually create a satin-stitch appliqué effect around the design, which cannot be done automatically. But don’t just take our word for it. Test it out yourself and be sure to comment down below and let us know which of the two designs you like best. And remember, while auto digitizing is a huge time saver, we recommend using it for simple designs or as a starter template to work off of. We highly suggest that you learn the basics of digitizing so you can make tweaks as necessary and offer your customers the best products possible.
