- Pcq files are Pfaff Embroidery Data files that are created by Pfaff Creative embroidery machines, and are used to store patterns and designs that have been created by users. They contain information about the stitch types, colors, and coordinates used to create the embroidery pattern. Pcq files can be opened and edited using the Pfaff Creative software.
- Based on HEVC (High-Efficiency Video Coding), the HEIF format is an image file container with one or multiple images and is the default image format for Apple Live Photos. It replaced the JPEG format as it's smaller in size and has lossless compression ensuring high-quality photos.
