Field notes
The homepage lays out a workflow of importing an image or describing a motif, inspecting and editing stitch order, then saving in an embroidery-machine format. It lists PES, JEF, VP3, EXP, XXX, and DST, and says the preview shows stitch count, thread cuts, estimated time, and warnings such as undersized lettering or hidden shapes. The site also links to 46 help guides; its lettering section recommends designs at least 18 mm tall.
