Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about embroidery digitizing with NeedleNow.
Embroidery digitizing is the process of converting an image, logo, or design into a stitch file that an embroidery machine can read. The digitized file contains instructions for every stitch -- including stitch type, direction, density, and thread color changes -- so your machine can reproduce the design on fabric.
NeedleNow exports to all major embroidery machine formats: DST (Tajima / industry standard), PES (Brother / Babylock), JEF (Janome / Elna), EXP (Melco), HUS (Husqvarna Viking), VP3 (Pfaff / Husqvarna), XXX (Singer), and VIP (Pfaff legacy). You can download any or all formats from a single conversion.
Our files work with virtually every home and commercial embroidery machine, including Brother, Janome, Bernina, Husqvarna Viking, Pfaff, Singer, Babylock, Melco, Tajima, Barudan, and more. If your machine reads any of the formats listed above, NeedleNow has you covered.
Each conversion costs just $1. There are no subscriptions, monthly fees, or hidden charges. You upload your image, preview the stitch pattern for free, and only pay when you digitize and download. Traditional digitizing services charge $10--$50+ per design.
Yes. NeedleNow accepts PNG, JPG, SVG, and WebP images. Our engine automatically traces contours, detects color regions, reduces colors to a manageable palette, and generates optimized stitch paths. Vector files (SVG) produce the sharpest results, but raster images work well too.
You can upload your image and preview the embroidery stitch pattern completely free. The $1 fee applies only when you digitize and download the machine-ready files. This makes NeedleNow one of the most affordable embroidery digitizing tools available online.
Most designs are digitized in under 30 seconds. Complex images with many colors may take slightly longer. The entire process -- upload, preview, digitize, and download -- typically takes under a minute.
No. NeedleNow runs entirely in your browser. There is nothing to download or install. It works on desktop, tablet, and mobile devices.
