My design files are listed as a pes or art file but are located under my
downloads. I have a software that will print me a picture of all the
designs, but I just wanted a master list so I don't download what I already
have. I have a hp photosmart printer. When I bring up the list I left click
and there is no option to print.
does this help?

Look in the design program's help files to see if it is possible to do what
you want from within the program. It sounds like the format is only
readable by the embroidery program. If by "master list" you want a simple
text file showing the names of the files, you could do this from the
command line:

Start Orb>Search Box>type: cmd
Cmd will appear in the Results above so click it. Then navigate to the
directory holding your files:

cd /d C:\user\your-name\Downloads\embroidery-folder [enter]
DIR /B >embroiderylist.txt [enter]

You'll get a listing of the file names saved in a Notepad plain text file
and can print that.

Or if you want to print the directory contents but are uncomfortable with
the command line, here's a free tool:

Another avenue would be to see if there are any user forums for this
particular embroidery software and ask there. It seems like something many
people might want to do and someone may already have the answer.
