Bernina Embroidery Software DesignerPlus 9 is Bernina's top-of-the-range software. This software allows you to upgrade from DesignerPlus 6, 7 or 8 to give you the new features and functionality of version 9. 

Helpful home screen and clear interface - Upon opening Bernina DesignerPlus Embroidery Software 9 you will notice an informative and interactive home screen that offers links to tutorials, new projects and resources. All the incredible software features are easy to use and navigate with the user-friendly interface. The menu is intuitive and easy to manage. You have the choice between small or large icons for a perfect view and the tool names and functions can be displayed if desired. Open more than one design at a time and easily switch between designs.

Customise anything - Alter an embroidery design according to your desires and without limits. The Full Editing feature offers the new Branching and the Weld tool. With the Branching tool you don’t have to think about the most efficient stitching sequence and connectors as this function does it for you. Digitizers often want to combine or weld objects into a single object which is easy with the new Weld tool.

Create unique graphic designs - If you wish to start with a new graphic, simply open the newest version of the graphic program CorelDraw SE – and get your own drawings in a breeze. Many new graphics have been added that you can choose from. Once the design is open use the new features to have fun creating, editing and designing your personally made embroidery design to prepare for sending it via WiFi connection to your embroidery machine.

Digitize your handwriting - Thanks to the new Keyboard Design Collection, you can expand your lettering capabilities limitlessly. With this versatile new feature, you can map existing alphabet designs to the keyboard, so you can type them directly on screen. No more combining designs one by one! You can even digitize your handwriting or your own alphabets from scratch! Furthermore, five additional Keyboard Design Collection fonts are included.

Easy positioning - The positioning feature makes it easy to place designs where you want them. Just set the design worksheet and add a template to your preview, then move and rotate the design within the hoop and use the advanced print preview options. Use the hoop template and basting stitch markers for the exact positioning.

Your favourite image as embroidery design - Take artwork and turn it into an embroidery design – all done by using the powerful, updated Auto-Digitizing and Full Digitizing tools. In just a few clicks your artwork is ready to stitch. With Full Digitizing you can create your embroidery design from a sketch and digitize it manually. This allows even more flexibility right from the beginning.

One-of-a-kind appliqués - Create appliqué and convert any shape into an appliqué design with just one click. Even creating appliqué with holes inside is possible with ease. Want to cut the fabric with the CutWork tool or a cutting machine? No problem as you can save an extra cutting file directly from the embroidery canvas.

In-built font designs - With this software you will get over 100 fonts – with some modern handwritten style fonts included. To ensure the best quality, the recommended size for each font is displayed in the dialogue box. The font preview size is changeable from small to large and the suggested size is already included. The font selection window shows recently used fonts at the bottom for more ease of use.

Design Library - This powerful integrated design library ensures quick access to all designs and provides enhanced design management. It makes it easy to browse, group and search for designs or get inspired. From here you can also directly send your designs to the Bernina WiFi Device for stitch-out.

3-D embroidery - The Color Photo Stitch and Automatic Digitizing features turn your favorite photo into a detailed embroidery design in just a few steps. With Puffy Lettering add outstanding 3D effects to embroidered letters and with the enhanced CutWork function create beautiful Eyelet Embroidery and Appliqué. The Globe Effect turns flat embroidery into a 3D design and with Couching create stunning 3D effects in combination with wool.

WiFi functionality -  you can transmit your embroidery designs to the embroidery machine. Whenever you are ready to embroider your design, start the process with just one click. Either to a Bernina embroidery machine with integrated WiFi functionality or, with the help of the included Bernina WiFi Device, to almost any embroidery machine with a USB port.
