- Description
- The XXX file format is associated with Compucon Singer, a brand well known in the embroidery and sewing industry. It is specifically used to store embroidery design data that can be read and utilized by Singer embroidery machines. These files contain instructions for the embroidery machine, including stitch patterns, colors, and design layout information, allowing it to accurately reproduce the intended design on fabric. The XXX format is one of several file types used in the embroidery field for the digital transfer of patterns and designs between software and sewing machine.
- The FPX (FlashPix Bitmap Image File) format is a type of image file designed to support high-resolution photographs and images. Developed in the mid-1990s by a consortium including Kodak, Microsoft, Hewlett-Packard, and Live Picture Inc., the FPX format is based on the Image Content Architecture (ICA), which allows it to store multiple resolutions of an image within a single file. This makes it especially useful for efficiently viewing and editing images without requiring the full image file.
