To those who have Singer Futura machines. If you don't have the hyperfont program is there another way to do lettering in fonts other than those provided with the machine? I have the CE250 model

Hi,
I owned a Futura and loved! the Hyperfont... maybe the only nice to say about the entire machine ;-)
I couldn't figure out another way to stitch out words.
I'm afraid you will need any kind of software, which either allows to import and merge some single letters from decorative fonts or one which is able to transform fonts from your computer.
There is no possibility of opening more than one design at a time- so you could try a monogramming with 2 or 3 letters by stitching out one after each other, but precise positioning is another weak point and this method is not practicable for longer texts.
But compared with Embird or PE-Designer the Hyperfont is relatively cheap- and so is the Futura machine itself. A good compromise for a beginner.
Greetings
Eva

Thanks. I do have autopunch program but don't have a program that will save in the file format it needs. My daughter is a graphic designer maybe she can help.
