Field notes
The generator processes the selected photograph in the browser, reduces it to a grid of symbols, and maps each colour to a nearest DMC solid thread. Users can set the width between 20 and 400 stitches and limit the palette to 2–44 colours; the page notes that merged matches may produce fewer colours than requested. Its outputs include a multi-page A4 PDF and an OXS file intended for cross-stitch software, although downloads are passcode-protected.
