- u01 files are data files created by Barudan embroidery machines and software. These files store information about the design and stitching for a given embroidery job. They are used to transfer embroidery designs between machines and software, and are typically used in commercial embroidery operations.
- The pec file type is a proprietary embroidery format used by Brother, Babylock, and Bernina home embroidery machines. It is used to store machine-readable designs for the machines to stitch out. The files can be edited with a variety of embroidery software programs.
