Creating & Decorating Monograms 35 Creating a Monogram Creating a simple monogram design is very easy with Pacesetter BES Monogramming Suite. Simply select one of the monogram layouts, type in the letters you want, choose a font and thread color, and click the OK button. The basic monogram will appear in your workspace, after which, you can save it to the appropriate file type. You can also add embellishments to the monogram using the "Monogram Designer" dialog. For details, see the following sections, "Adding Decors to a Monogram" and "Adding a Frame to a Monogram". To create a new monogram design: 1 In the Monogram Designer dialog, select one of the styles from the monogram styles area. 2 In the Text area, type your lettering into the appropriate text field. The number of text fields that are "active" depends on the monogram style you have chosen. For a single-letter monogram pattern, only the Text1 field will be active; if a two-letter style is chosen, 'Text 1' and 'Text 2' will be active; and if a three-letter style is selected, all three fields will be available. For Name-type templates, both the 'Text 1' and 'Text 2' fields will be active - the initial letter will be input into 'Text 1' and the name portion will be input into 'Text 2'. The exception to this is the "Name-only" (i.e. no initial) template. For this template type, the text for the name will be entered in the 'Text 1' Field. Also note that, for the Name template monogram styles, the maximum number of characters that the name field can have is 30. 3 Select the Font for the monogram from the fonts field.
