- Description
- Ameco Embroidery Format (NEW) is a proprietary embroidery machine file format developed by Ameco, a Japanese company specialized in embroidery machines. It is used to store and transfer embroidery designs between machines and embroidery software. The NEW format is the latest version of the Ameco format, and it supports a wide range of features such as complex design shapes and colors.
- The XCF file format is the native image format used by GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program), a free and open-source raster graphics editor used for image editing, free-form drawing, converting between different image formats, and more specialized tasks. XCF stands for eXperimental Computing Facility, which was the name of the lab where GIMP was originally developed. XCF files are designed to store all the information that GIMP needs to accurately render an image.
