Batch name drops

About this tool

Built for name runs

Team jackets, staff polos, school hoodies and wedding party robes come as a list of names that all share one setup. The batch tool applies the lettering engine to each line and writes a separate file per name, so the operator selects by reading the file name on the machine rather than editing text on the screen thirty times. Every file is centred on the origin, which is what machines expect, and the manifest gives the stitch count per name for quoting.

Same engine as lettering

Each name is built exactly as the lettering tool builds it: medial-axis satin columns at 0.40 mm spacing with underlay and tie-ins, or fill with a satin edge for large names. The same warnings apply, once, for the whole batch.

Limits

• Latin script with accents (é, ñ, ø, ß) is covered; Cyrillic, Greek and Arabic are not in the bundled fonts.
• Names are one line each. Two-line names are two entries.
• Duplicates are kept: two identical names produce two files, so the count matches the garments.
