New Features in Designer & Publisher Editions
StitchCraft 2000 is our biggest upgrade ever, it is packed with new and improved features. Some of the highlights are detailed below.


Bargello Tool - Due to popular demand, we have added the new bargello tool. This tool works in a similar way to the backstitch tool. Produce professional bargello charts with 30 easy-to-read bargello symbols.

Complex designs, such as photo conversions, often have colors that are very similar; these can often be merged without detrimental effects on the design. The new Multiple Merge feature is perfect for reducing the complexity of photo conversions or other complex designs. Multiple Merge makes designs easier to sew with minimal loss of detail.

Importing pictures for Photo Conversion or Trace Over is streamlined with a preview of the picture to be converted and new file formats including Tiff, WMF, and JPEG. This makes it easier to import clipart and images from photo disks.

Use StitchCraft’s new Filing System to keep your charts and palettes etc. organized. You can also designate the folders you would like StitchCraft to automatically show when you open or save charts and palettes etc.. StitchCraft opens where your charts are every time, making filing easy.
