- 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.
- An ICO file is an image format used to store icons for Windows programs, files, and folders. It contains two bitmaps: 1) the AND bitmap - the image mask (which determines what part of the icon is transparent) and 2) the XOR bitmap - contains the icon which is mapped onto the image mask. ICO files can be modified to create custom icons.
