Abstract
Type information on sewing machine types and identification information for specifying a sewing machine are stored in a control unit and computer of the sewing machine. A server transmits display data for displaying a pattern selection edit screen to the sewing machine side. At the sewing machine side, a pattern is selected while the pattern selection edit screen is being viewed, and an edit processing is instructed. The server edits an embroidery pattern ordered at the sewing machine side, based on the instruction supplied from the sewing machine side. The server transmits the display data and sewing pattern data to the sewing machine side. Incorporated patterns and non-incorporated patterns at the sewing machine side are displayed identifiably on a display at the sewing machine side. The server charges for the non-incorporated newly purchased patterns.
