How do I download designs?  

"Downloading" refers to the act of transferring a file from a server (website) to your computer. It is a simple transfer of information that takes only a few seconds. You don't need any special software to download -- you only need a web browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, AOL, MSN, etc.). Using the instructions below, you can easily download any design to your computer.
 

Click on the �Unzipped� or �Zipped� buttons.

Your web browser will ask you if you want to �Open� the file or �Save� the file. Choose to �Save� the file.

Your browser will now ask you where you want to save the file, and what you want to name it. You can save it to a floppy disk by clicking the �3 1/2 floppy (A:)� drive.

Or, you can save it to your desktop by clicking the �Desktop� option.

Or, you can save it to a specific folder by clicking that option.

You can either keep the same name that we have given the design, or you can name the design something else. 

Then, click �Save.�

That is exactly how you download a design. Now you can open the design with embroidery software, or upload it to your machine via floppy disk, CD, flash/thumb drive, embroidery card, or direct transfer through USB cable or wireless -- that depends on how your machine receives designs.
