A free browser tool for viewing embroidery designs and converting between machine file formats, with processing described as happening on your device.

Landing page captured for the 2026-11-02 issue.
For
Embroidery machine owners working with mismatched design files
Worth noticing
Its samples are real stitch files: lobster (9,302 stitches), octopus (30,939), and unicorn (38,967).

Field notes

The page separates format conversion from digitising, explicitly saying image-to-stitch conversion is not available. It also spells out format-specific tradeoffs: DST and EXP carry no color data, while JEF maps colors to the nearest Janome thread. Sample files are identified by both format and stitch count, including a 38,967-stitch unicorn in JEF.
