Export Embroidery Machine Design Files

Use this function to write the (expanded) embroidery design of the active document (or the stitches of a condensed design) as a machine format file.

Instead, if you want to write a design file in the system file format (condensed design), you must use the function: Save Embroidery Designs.

We use the terms Open and Save (as read and write actions) when it refers to System Format Files (the natural file format), and we use Import and Export (as read and write actions) when it refers to Machine Format Files.

 

There are several ways to save the active embroidery design (design on the active document tab) as a DSG (native) system format file.
