Understanding JPG and EMB file formats

The JPG (or JPEG) file format is a widely used method of lossy compression for digital images, particularly for those images produced by digital photography. It is a common choice for storing and sharing images due to its balance between quality and file size.

The EMB file format is associated with embroidery design files. These files contain instructions for embroidery machines to stitch patterns onto fabric. EMB files are used by various embroidery software and machines to create intricate designs.
