What is the difference between .pes and .fax?

Name: Brother Embroidery Format; Group 3 FAX
Extension: .pes; .fax
Format: Binary; Binary
Category: Embroidery; Fax
Developer: Brother; ITU-T
Description: CAM (computer aided manufacturing) file that contains instructions for creating embroideries with a sewing machine; includes codes such as "stop," "jump," and "trim;" also includes the colors for the design from the supported Brother color palette; can be opened and viewed by various sewing programs.; This format is used to compress TIFF images when sending them via fax machines. This format helps reduce the data transmission time. Group 3 eliminates redundant data during compression in order to reduce file size. The standard 10:1 compression ratio may be increased to the user's preferences, but it can lead to a significant loss of image quality.

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.
