A SHV file is a design file used by Husqvarna Viking Designer embroidery machines. It contains an embroidery design, which includes information about stitches, colors, and other design elements. It is used to transfer a design to a machine's memory and create an embroidered object.
A BMP file is an uncompressed raster image comprised of a rectangular grid of pixels. It contains a file header (bitmap identifier, file size, width, height, color options, and bitmap data starting point) and bitmap pixels, each with a different color.
