EasyGrapher
Specialty is a computer design program for needlework designers who want to
create needlepoint, Hardanger, Bargello, plastic canvas, and other "canvas
style" needlework graphs. Specialty is different from
most other graphing programs in that the grid lines represent the threads of the fabric.
No longer do needlepoint and other similar designers have to adjust designs done with a
cross stitch design program.
EasyGrapher Specialty is easy to use, versatile,
and produces professional quality graphs fast! With features that can also be found in
EasyGrapher Professional 2004, Specialty is for designers who do not yet need the power of
our professional program.
Graphs can be designed and printed in color or black and white using
up to 22 different line styles (or colors) for long stitches. They can include lazy daisy,
queen, and picot stitches. Parts of the grid can be deleted for drawn thread or cut work.
Also, because we listen to our customers, we include a
complete, printed reference manual with the program.
EasyGrapher Specialty sells for $99. Additional
ordering and price information is on the Ordering
page.
