- Description
- The Fortron Embroidery Format (fxy) is a proprietary file format primarily used for the design of embroidery patterns. It stores information regarding the type of embroidery, colors, sizes, and stitch types used in the design. It is used by Fortron Embroidery Software and other compatible programs.
- VIPS is a libvips file format mainly used for calculations, but it can also store images. The main advantage is that it has no size limit; it's fast and straightforward. Nonetheless, most applications can't view it, so converting it to a more popular format is the only way to work around it.
