- 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.
- A .tap file with G-code is a CNC machining program, a text list of tool movements written by CAM software for controllers such as Mach3; unrelated to embroidery .tap files.
