- 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.
- A PGM file is a grayscale image file saved in the portable gray map (PGM) format and encoded with one or two bytes (8 or 16 bits) per pixel. It contains header information and a grid of numbers that represent different shades of gray from black (0) to white (up to 65,536). PGM files are typically stored in ASCII text format, but also have a binary representation.
