- Description
- The dat file type is a proprietary format used by Barudan embroidery machines. It is a vector-based format used to store embroidery designs, including stitch patterns, color sequences, and other design elements. The file can be converted to other formats, such as DST, EXP, JEF, and PES, for use in other embroidery software programs and machines.
- A PPM file is a 24-bit color image formatted using a text format. It stores each pixel with a number from 0 to 65536, which specifies the color of the pixel. PPM files also store the image height and width, whitespace data, and the maximum color value.
