How can I make a picture (jpeg or bmp) from an embroidery file (PES) without having to stitch it out? Thanks! Pat

Hi Pat, I think this will help you. Hugs&*, Yoriko.

That is a great technique for saving some pictures on web sites that don't allow right click too, as I like to save the picture with the design file. Always learning :)

I use a true sizer sotfware. You can download a True Sizer software. Open the design .pes, then on File-Design Properties --you can change the thread colors, the background---- And on File--Capture design..., and you can get your design in .jpg (or .pmx, .bmp, png).

Yes, this works and gives a great result! Thank you! I hope to share my digitization work with you very soon! Pat

I have been using a program from Wilcom. It is a
free download. I have been using it for quite awhile. They have up grades, but I have never purchased one. This program changes one format
to another. And you have to open up the pes or other
file on a screen and from there you can price out
a picture and detail for that file. I hope this is
what your asking for. http://www.wilcom.com.au/PRODUCTS...

Thank you! Pat

right click on picture then print it out. Is that what you are trying to do?

I must do something wrong... I am using Layout and Editing from Brother and it would not copy it to any other software. Thanks. Pat

Hi There, Try to "Copy" and "Paste" into paint... Then save as jpeg or bmp... Hope this works for U, *4U ta boot...

No luck with this one... I must do something wrong... I am using Layout and Editing from Brother and it would not copy it to any other software. Thanks. Pat

You can try to "Copy" and "Paste" that works for me. Hope it does for you! *4U

No, this does not work for me... It would not allow me to paste in a word document. Thanks! Pat

I checked it out after I posted, and this does not work for my Emb designs. Sorry, I tried.

No problem, it happens... Yoriko gave a working solution. Pat

If you have Embird or other you can print and then scan the picture? Not sure if this is the answer but hope it helps.

This is a good idea... but no scanner... Pat
