Templates are essentially design files but use the extension ‘AMT’. When you close a design, current settings are not automatically saved to the current template. You can save modified settings to the NORMAL template though you should consider saving them to a separate template.
1Start a new design file or open an existing one.
2Optionally, turn off auto fabrics if you need access to all object properties.
3Adjust property settings, backgrounds, start/end points, effects, etc, as required.
4Add any objects and/or lettering to be included in the template. For instance, you may want to include sample lettering using different baselines. When using the template, simply over-type the sample text.
5Select File > Save As Template. The Save As Template dialog opens onto the TEMPLATE folder. This is located within the BERNINA V9 installation folder. Templates must be saved here in order to appear in the template list when you start a new-from-template design. By default, the file type will default to the AMT format.
6Enter a meaningful name for your template, and click Save.
The template is ready for use and will appear in the New from Template droplist.
