    Tips for JPEG to PES Conversions

    • Bright, high-contrast JPEGs stitch out better than dark or low-contrast images.
    • For photographs, background removal isolates the main subject and dramatically improves stitch quality.
    • Keep Brother machine hoop limits in mind — most PE-series hoops are 130×180 mm to 200×300 mm.
    • The PES format supports color metadata, so the machine will prompt for color changes at the right moments.
    • Always do a test stitch before your final run.
