It may also be a situation that one software can be used for supporting files as well as for their conversion - the case has also been taken into account.

The software can be in the database of our service for two reasons – it supports files with specific extensions or helps in their conversion. To do this, the easiest way is to visit the manufacturer's website, the link to which you will find further in the webpage. Therefore, make sure to have the updated version of the BALARAD Embird Studio. Usually, the newer the version is, the greater the number of file extensions supported by the application. Keep in mind that the application BALARAD Embird Studio in its various versions (older or newer ones) can support different file extensions. There is often a situation that we can only export the data in this format from the application BALARAD Embird Studio, but the data import is not supported.

Keep in mind that even if the extension is supported by the BALARAD Embird Studio, it does not necessarily mean that we will be able to edit the data in this program.

The following list is a list of file extensions with which the BALARAD Embird Studio can operate, both in terms of editing data in files, as well as their conversion. Vector files are scalable, which means that compilation of design from vector file adjusts stitch count and layout to fit chosen size dimensions of design.The possibilities of the BALARAD Embird Studio Intermediate source file is not a final product, but it should be kept for eventual future editing of the design. In Embird we call this process compilation. If you have a ready-made vector file from other source, a graphic program for example, you can convert it into embroidery design with use of automatic digitizing and skip the manual vectorization.Ĭomposing embroidery design from objects has an intermediate product - a source file that contains vector outlines of objects which are later filled with stitches and saved into appropriate stich file format for respective embroidery machine. When digitizing a design, you may draw individual stitches if you wish, but most often you draw outlines of objects that are filled with stitches by program, or auto-trace objects from raster pictures with magic wand tool and use automatic digitizing.ĭrawing or tracing the outlines of objects is called vectorization. Right: stitches generated to fill the object Drawing of Objects - Manual or Automatic Vectorization Left: outline of object made with few nodes and curves.
