Photo → stitch· auto-digitize a logo

PNG/JPG trace pixels — best for simple marks. SVG reads the real vector paths (crisp satin for logos & script) — use it when you have one.

Have a stitch file? Drop a .pes / .dst / .jef above to lay it on the hoop.
Just have a logo? Use Digitize image — an SVG gives the crispest satin.
