Applying lettering baselines

Baselines determine the shape of lettering objects in a design. You can place lettering on a straight horizontal or vertical line, curve lettering around a circle or arc, or digitize your own baseline. Different reference points are needed depending on the baseline you use. You can digitize baselines on-screen.

Baselines use default settings to determine their size, spacing and angles. BERNINA V9 gives you both interactive and precise numerical control over many baseline settings. Techniques are available to modify baseline type, length, radius and angle, as well as baseline position.

Note  BERNINA V9 will remember which baseline you used last and use this one if you type letters directly on-screen.
