When you first access WilcomWorkspace, you are presented with the dashboard, or home page. From here you can access designs – either design or machine file – either your own or sample designs provided by the system. When trialing the system, make use of the sample designs.
The Truesizer app lets you preview and prepare embroidery files before stitching. Its simplicity makes it easy for even the most novice users. View, resize, recolor, print worksheets, and convert files for production.
