About WebP files
WebP is the modern web image format with transparency and strong compression. WebP supports transparency like PNG, so graphics saved straight from the web convert directly — transparent pixels are treated as background and stripped automatically.
Tip: Right-click-saved web graphics are often WebP already; upload them as-is, no need to convert to PNG first.
About the DST format
DST (Tajima stitch format) is read by Tajima commercial machines and nearly every multi-needle or commercial embroidery machine — DST is the industry's most widely supported format. The format stores no thread colours at all — only stitches, jumps, and colour-stop commands. Transfer by USB or network. Because DST carries only colour stops, you assign the actual thread colours at the machine.
