What is a PEC file?

PEC is the stitch part inside every PES file: the stitches, the Brother thread colors and the preview icons. Some older Brother and Baby Lock machines and many design programs read PEC files on their own.

What is a PES file?

PES is the embroidery format of Brother machines, also read by Baby Lock, Bernette and many others. It stores every stitch, the thread colors from the Brother thread chart and a small preview picture for the machine’s screen.

Is the conversion exact?

Every stitch keeps its position. After converting, we read the new file back and compare it with yours, stitch by stitch; a file that doesn’t match is never offered. PES files use the Brother thread chart, so each color becomes the nearest Brother thread.

How to load the PES file onto your machine

Copy the file to a USB stick and plug it into your machine, or send it with your machine maker’s app or software. Hoop your fabric with a stabilizer, choose the design on the screen and start sewing.
