- Description
- The VP3 file type is a vector-based embroidery file format developed by Husqvarna Viking/Pfaff, used to store embroidery designs for use with computerized embroidery machines. It is a proprietary format that can store a wide range of stitches, as well as images and text.
- Group 4 (G4) used for black and white lossless compression to maintain high-quality images, commonly used in TIFF format compression by fax machines. A picture is seen as black dots and lines on a blank page; the fewer the dots and lines are, the lesser the file size.
