I want to write designs to the floppy disk

Some customers prefer to write their designs to floppies using the actual design name instead of the Tajima Gxxx number. This can be done by changing the settings in Embroidery Explorer. Embroidery Explorer is a standard feature for all systems except Lettering 1, for which it is an option. To use Embroidery Explorer to write the disks, you will have to save the file to the hard drive first. Then you can open Embroidery Explorer and click and drag the file to the Floppy A (Tajima) folder. NOTE: if you use the FILE - SAVE AS command in Edit or Lettering, or the EXPORT command in Design, and try to save the design directly to the floppy disk, it will default back to the Tajima Gxxx format for the name on the disk.

Follow these steps to set up Embroidery Explorer to write files to the disks with names:
  1. Open Embroidery Explorer
  2. Click on the TOOLS menu at the top and choose NAME STRATEGY from the drop down menu.
  3. Refer to the figures below for Single and Multiple Copy settings.
