Vector art

When it comes to preparing artwork for digitization, vector art is king. Unlike raster images (like JPG or PNG), vector files (.AI, .EPS, .SVG) are made up of paths, not pixels. This means they can be scaled infinitely without losing quality. More importantly, they allow digitizers to clearly define stitch paths and edges, ensuring the embroidery is clean, accurate, and professional-looking. A high-quality vector file can save hours of cleanup work and result in a better finished product.
