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 EXP format
EXP (Melco Expanded format) is read by Bernina home machines and Melco commercial embroidery machines. The format stores raw stitch data with no thread-colour table. Load via USB. EXP carries stitches and colour stops only, so you set the actual thread colours on the machine.
