What is the difference between .pcs and .dcx?

Name: Pfaff Embroidery File; ZSoft IBM PC Multi-Page Paintbrush Image
Extension: .pcs; .dcx
Format: Binary
Category: Embroidery; Raster Image
Developer: Pfaff; ZSoft
Description: The PCS file format is associated with Pfaff sewing and embroidery machines. It is specifically designed to store embroidery design data that can be read and utilized by Pfaff-branded machines. A PCS file contains instructions on stitches, thread colors, and other design elements necessary for the machine to accurately recreate the embroidery pattern on fabric. This file format allows for the transfer and storage of embroidery designs, enabling users to share, edit, and manage their embroidery projects efficiently.; DCX file is a multi-page image file developed by raster file or bitmap file formats. It is generated fro PCX files, so it has a small header that shows the .dcx then a sequence of .pcx data. Popularly used by applications to create and send multi-page fax files.

What a conversion keeps

Stitches: Every stitch is kept at its exact position. Nothing is re-digitised.
Colours: Kept when the target stores them. DST stores no colours, only where each colour changes, so your machine asks for the threads.
Trims, jumps and stops: Kept, and written the way the target machine expects them.
Objects and lettering: Design programs keep shapes and text as objects. A machine file only holds stitches, so objects become stitches.
