New Book Coming in July 2009
 
Tell Tim What You Want To Learn
We are working on a NEW BOOK for release in July 2009The working title for this new book is currently 4D Embroidery CookbookThis book is one that people have been asking for since the new 4D Embroidery software was released.  The new book will contain a number of projects that begin with using 4D Embroidery Extra.  We will then take the project into 4D Stitch Editor to make changes that can only be done with that software.  Some projects will also then include a new design or part of a design that we will create together in 4D Design Creator.
 
Tim has lots of ideas that will help you take your software to new limits, but he needs your help.  Think about something that you would like to do, like place a blanket stitch around your appliques rather than a satin border (one of the projects that we are including in this new book) and send your questions or requests to Tim.  Also tell us if it's OK to credit you in the new book if your suggestion is used.
 
If we use your idea for one of the projects, then Tim will send you an autographed copy of this new book before it goes out for general distribution and sales.  You will be one of the first people in the country (possibly the world) to have a copy of this new book.  So put on your thinking caps and send in those requests.
 
Our First Free Video Now Available
I always enjoy hearing from my readers.  Your questions about the 3D and 4D software are always great and I love being able to answer them to help you get over the rough spots of using your software.
 
Most questions can be answered with a short email.  However, sometimes the answer to a question can best be presented in a short video.  Recently I received such a question about how to use the 4D Disk Manager USB.
 
I made a video to answer this question and posted it on my web site.  You can see it by clicking on this link.
 
Please take a moment and look at this video and then, if you have the time, let me know what you think about it.  Was it too long, too short, or just right?  And, most importantly, do you want to see more videos?  If you have a question that you would like answered with a video, then click here to send me an email.
 
Free Downloads 
All of our 3D books contained a chapter on computer skills.  After writing our first 4D book, I decided to eliminate that material from all future books and make it available to everyone as a free download on my web site.  Recently, I redesigned my web page and the old address shown in my earlier books as the location for these files changed.  I corrected that reference on the new web site and created a new location for these files. 
 
If you want to see and/or download these files, just click on this link and you'll find these files.
Ordering Books Directly From Great Software Documentation, Inc.
 
All of the our books that cover the 4D Embroidery software system sold exclusively through authorized Husqvarna Viking and Pfaff dealers in the United States and Canada.  However, if you are located outside of the united States and Canada, I am authorized to sell these books directly to the consumer.  
 
Because our books that cover the 3D software are no longer carried by Husqvarna Viking and Pfaff dealers, then I am allowed to sell copies of these books directly to the consumer.  I have a limited number of Essentials of 3D Embroidery Studio, and Basic Digitizing.  Some local dealers may also have copies of these books still in stock.  I strongly recommend that you support your local dealers by purchasing these books from them whenever possible.  However, If you wish to order any of my 3D books, or, if you are outside of the United States and Canada, then you can click here and look at the bottom of this page for a link to email in your order.
What's Coming In October?
In a word, whatever you want me to talk about.  If you have any topics that you would like to see covered in this newsletter or on my web site, then send me your request in an email by clicking here.  Tell me in your email if it's OK for me to give you credit for the topic and/or question and I will do so in October.
