Registering embroidery data (batch registration)

1. Prepare the embroidery data to be registered, and rename them so that the character in each file can be identified by the file name.

   Characters are registered according to the file name of the embroidery data.

   In order to differentiate uppercase and lowercase letters, add "u_" at the beginning of file names for uppercase letters, and "l_" at the beginning of file names for lowercase letters (for example, u_A.pes or l_a.pes).

   For characters that cannot be used in file names, specify their file names as shown below.
