About GIF files
GIF is a palette-based format limited to 256 colours. GIF's small colour palette actually helps digitizing — flat, already-quantized colour regions map cleanly onto thread colours with no photo noise to filter out.
Tip: GIFs are often small; if you have a larger source image, upload that instead for smoother edges.
About the XXX format
XXX (Singer/Compucon format) is read by Singer Futura series machines and Compucon EOS software. The format keeps an RGB thread-colour table alongside the stitch data. Transfer through the Futura software or by USB, depending on your Singer model.
