Convert selected designs

There are two types of embroidery file format:

Design	Design files, also known as ‘outline’ or ‘all-in-one’ files, contain digitized shapes and lines, selected stitch types and stitch values and effects.
Machine	Machine files, also known as ‘stitch’ files, contain stitches and machine functions and are only suited to specific embroidery machines.

Design files are created in the software. Machine files are ones you send to machine for production. EMB is the native design format. You can convert your EMB designs to and from other file formats directly from your design library.
