- A GCODE file contains commands in G-Code, which is a language used to describe how a 3D printer should print a job. It stores instructions in plain text with each line representing a different command, such as how fast the printer should print, the temperature it should be set at, and where the printing parts should move.
- The XXX file format is associated with Compucon Singer, a brand well known in the embroidery and sewing industry. It is specifically used to store embroidery design data that can be read and utilized by Singer embroidery machines. These files contain instructions for the embroidery machine, including stitch patterns, colors, and design layout information, allowing it to accurately reproduce the intended design on fabric. The XXX format is one of several file types used in the embroidery field for the digital transfer of patterns and designs between software and sewing machine.
