Add text / import SVGs

Starting StitchBuddy 3.1 you can add shapes by typing text with all fonts installed on your Mac. In addition you can import SVG files and use their paths as shapes to be outlined or filled with stitches.

In this video I show how to create a "Peace" embroidery design by created a simple SVG file, import it into StitchBuddy, and add text as well as merge an existing design. It became longer than intended as I messed up with my test environment, so you will also see me performing an In-App purchase - feel free to use the jump marks on YouTube to skip irrelevant sections.

These features are requiring an In-App purchase "StitchBuddy Creator", but can be tested using "Helvetica" and "Times New Roman" fonts resp. by importing only the first path of an SVG file.
