Embroidery

Embroidery file formats are how an embroidery design is saved to be stitched out on a specific embroidery machine brand. These files are saved as a .DST, which is most common, it is a drawing sheet file created by AutoCAD, a CAD design and documentation application/software. Your original design or company logos is in a graphic format and thru a process called digitizing it is created using various stitch patterns which then get programed into and sewn by an embroidery on a hat, polo, t shirt or other items of your choice. 
Most of the time details can be captured but depending on your design some fine details might not be best for embroidery.
