从“我有一张图片”到“我有一份真的想绣的 PDF”的 8 个步骤。
Getting Started
New to Stitchmate? What you can make, the four ways to start a pattern (a photo, a PDF chart, a pattern file or a blank grid), and where your patterns, palettes, motifs and threads live.
Home (the screen Stitchmate opens on)Image Import
Turn a photo into a pattern in three steps: Photo (crop, straighten, erase the background), Pattern (size, threads, colors, detail, clean up), and PDF.
Home → Create → From an image. From a pattern made this way: Size & colors (top left of the editor), or File → Back to Size & Colors…Editing Colors
Change colors without breaking your pattern: swap a thread everywhere or in one area, merge look-alikes, see where a color is used, and give every color a clear symbol.
Right panel → PalettePalette Tools
Rework every color in your pattern at once: recolor it with another palette, switch thread brands, warm or brighten it, cut it down to fewer threads, and save palettes.
Palette → Palette toolsConfetti Cleanup Tool
Get rid of confetti, the lone single stitches that make a pattern tedious to stitch. Clean the whole pattern in one press, preview a stronger pass, protect faces and text with a mask, or brush away speckles by hand.
Left toolbar → Clean Up Confetti / Right panel → CheckBrush Tool
BPaint and erase stitches with a round brush: block in shapes fast, add partial stitches, mirror your work with symmetry, scatter two colors, and draw with stylus pressure.
Left toolbar → BrushSelection Tool
VMark part of your chart, then copy it, move it, fill it, erase it, or hand it to Transform to flip and rotate.
Left toolbar → SelectionPDF Export
Export your cross-stitch pattern as a printable PDF: choose the paper and chart style, split the chart into pages, and set up the cover, key, and branding.

Home (the screen Stitchmate opens on)Canvas Navigation
Zoom in on a few stitches, move to another corner, and get back to the whole pattern in one keystroke, with a mouse, a trackpad or your fingers.
CanvasView Options
Choose what you see while you work: colors, symbols or a realistic stitched look, plus grid, fabric, backstitch and rulers in stitches, centimeters or inches. None of it changes your PDF.
Top right → View (eye icon)Layers
Keep the text, a border or a risky idea on its own layer, so you can move, hide or delete it without touching the rest of the pattern.
Left toolbar → LayersSource Image Overlay
ULay your original photo or drawing over the chart while you edit, to trace outlines, check a face still reads, or compare colors. It never prints.
Left toolbar → OverlayKeyboard Shortcuts
Every keyboard shortcut in Stitchmate, grouped by where you use it: the editor tools, canvas navigation, colors, progress tracking, the import screens, and search fields.
Editor → Help → Keyboard ShortcutsCloud and Local Patterns
On the Stitchmate desktop app your patterns are files on your computer. Sign in and you can also keep a copy in your account. What "linked" means, what the badges say, and what happens when you open, upload or change a pattern in two places.

Selection & Tools
Which selection tool fits the job, and how to make the Brush, Fill and other tools change only the area you selected.

Will this pattern be pleasant to stitch, and what should you fix first? The FLOW score answers both, and puts a fix you can press next to each problem.
