- Description
- A text outline format used by industrial sewing machines. Each line holds nine integers: a flag (0 = line, 1 = arc, -1 = end record), a start point, an end point and, for arcs, a centre point and a rotation direction, with coordinates in hundredths of a millimetre and every record terminated by LF CR.
- The pec file type is a proprietary embroidery format used by Brother, Babylock, and Bernina home embroidery machines. It is used to store machine-readable designs for the machines to stitch out. The files can be edited with a variety of embroidery software programs.
