Use Lettering / Monogramming > Lettering to create embroidery lettering using embroidery fonts or TrueType fonts, or edit selected lettering.

If it is not essential to fit letters precisely to a certain area, you can type them directly on-screen. You can also modify lettering objects directly on-screen to achieve various artistic effects. Appearance and layout depend on current settings. You can change them at any time.
