- Description
- An embroidery file type TAP is a file format used by home embroidery machines to store information about the design that is to be stitched. The file contains all the data and instructions necessary for the machine to create the design. It includes information about the type and color of threads to be used, the size of the design, and the exact locations of the different elements of the design.
- 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.
