- Description
- Pfaff Embroidery Design Files (PCM) are a proprietary file format used to store embroidery designs produced by the Pfaff brand of embroidery machines. PCM files contain stitch patterns which can be used to embroidery clothing, accessories, and other textiles. These files can be opened and edited using various Pfaff design software applications.
- A PGM file is a grayscale image file saved in the portable gray map (PGM) format and encoded with one or two bytes (8 or 16 bits) per pixel. It contains header information and a grid of numbers that represent different shades of gray from black (0) to white (up to 65,536). PGM files are typically stored in ASCII text format, but also have a binary representation.
