A:AnswerThe SDX125 model has many more built-in patterns and 4 additional fonts than the SDX85, including 100 quilt designs. The SDX 125 model also has a larger LCD. You can use the free Brother CanvasWorkspace software to create and edit patterns to use with the machine.
A:AnswerThe Brother SDXEGY and the Brother DX machine has the same function. The only difference is the Brother SDXEGY comes with 3 Pattern Collection cards.
A:AnswerThe Brother SDX-125 is a great tool for greeting card making. There are several optional kits available to enhance the use of the machine, for paper crafting such as rhinestone, embossing, calligraphy, paper piercing, foiling, sticker and more!
A:AnswerThe Brother ScanNCut SDX125E includes 76 SVG files compiled on 3 separate pattern collection activation cards. Otherwise, the Brother ScanNCut SDX125 and SDX125E include the same base accessories and the look of the machines are the same.
A:AnswerBrother ScanNCut machines can read .SVG files to use as draw and cut data. Simple designs can be imported and edited straight from USB 2.0 Flash Drives. You'd only want to use their Canvas Workspace software on your PC (Windows/Apple) if it were more intricate or complicated. This is to take advantage of vastly greater processing power and much larger screen "real estate" for designing and converting .SVGs to what you want. While I've only been able to work on one project at a time I can copy data from a different project file to paste into a new one. Just open one project file, select the portions you need, copy them. Then close that project and open the one you want to add these elements to. Paste the data into the project file, continue to edit, save your work before closing it again. Yes this can be a hassle if you have to do it often. But keep in mind this is a machine targeted chiefly at home sewing, crafting, and small business uses.
You could also try printing the "die cuts" to use as scan to cut data on the ScanNCut DX machines. You can also use their PC software to import .JPGs to enable a similar feature of converting images to cut files. Be wary though that the design isn't too richly detailed as it either will not work at all or will be too big/complicated for the machine's internal computer to cope with.
If you're a Windows user I strongly advise you to get PowerToys which lets you see the images of the Brother .FCMs, project files, .SVGs, and .PDFs without having to open each one respectively. Brother's software introduced a new premium feature that allows for printing your designs to .PDFs. That will allow you to use registration marks and make prints on your inkjet or laser printer. I find that designing in their software is rather easy and had asked if they could allow print to .PDF. While I can't say they added this feature specifically for me I can say I plan to buy the extra feature asap.
I hope this helps.

The way the quilt patterns are shown on the cutter is as a whole plus with stages dedicated to each portion of the design. This lets people choose exactly which part of the quilt they want to work on or to choose the entire pattern.
A:AnswerThe 12" x 24" mat can be used for cutting on the Brother ScanNCut SDX85 and SDX125, however you will not be able to scan the entire length using the 12"x24" mat.
A:AnswerMaximum length is 5.85 feet. You'll use the feed roller 2 because it comes with an unlock code that enables tiling in the PC (Windows/Apple) software's Art Board mode. The machine doesn't have a printer. It does have plotter pens and 2 universal pen adapters. One for small barrel pens, the other for large barrel pens. With these pens you can draw out shapes, words, etc. But nothing nearly as common as an inkjet or laser printer.
A:AnswerAfter using the scan feature, you are able to delete lines that you are not wanting, but to specify certain lines to be cut or embossed, it would be recommended to transfer the scanned image or design to CanvasWorkspace.
