Convert DST to DCR

What is DST file?

The .DST file extension is a widely used vector graphic file format for embroidery machines. It was created by Tajima Corporation as a proprietary format for their popular series of embroidery digitizing software. DST files can be opened and edited with any version of Tajima DGML or Pulse Master and are also supported by many other professional embroidery programs, such as Wilcom and Singer X-Site. The DST format consists of two components - the stitch commands and the machine setup commands. [ ⏩ ] DST file extension

What is DCR file?

DCR (Kodak RAW Image File) is a bitmap image format commonly used by .KDC, .CRW, and .CR2 digital cameras. It is based on the TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) specification, and allows for 8 bits of lossless compression per channel. A DCR file contains raw data that has been captured directly from a camera's image sensor, rather than information that has been processed by the camera's image processor. [ ⏩ ] DCR file extension

How to convert the file from DST to DCR?

To successfully convert the DST file to DCR, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.DST). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case DCR (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than DCR).

What is a file conversion?

A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. DST to DCR. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.

Program for converting DST files to DCR files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension DCR, while before this step we had the DST file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new DCR file, or not.
