DST File Conversion
DST is the format almost every commercial embroidery machine reads. Getting your logo into one isn't a file conversion though — a DST holds stitch instructions, not shapes, so the design has to be rebuilt stitch by stitch. That's what we do, by hand, from $8.
Hand-built, not auto-traced
Free converters generate dense, badly sequenced stitching that puckers and breaks thread. A digitizer decides every stitch type, direction and sequence.
Tajima-ready
DST is the Tajima standard and reads on virtually every commercial machine. We supply PES, JEF, EXP and VP3 alongside it at no extra cost.
Built for your fabric
Underlay and pull compensation are set for the garment you're actually running — a cap file and a polo file are not the same file.
You own it outright
The DST is yours to keep, reuse and take anywhere. We can also supply the editable source file so future resizes are simple.
How it works
Send your artwork
Vector (AI, EPS, PDF, SVG) is ideal; a sharp PNG or JPG works fine. Tell us the finished width and the garment.
We digitize it
Rebuilt as stitch data with proper underlay, compensation and sequencing for a clean sew-out.
