Embroidery Digitizing or Embroidery Punching is the process of converting  artwork designs into a digital embroidery pattern.  This pattern is read by embroidering machines. Digitizing software is used to achieve this process. Artwork is created in a drawing format, vector format or scanned artwork from a picture.  It is saved in .jpeg format and converted to a digital embroidery pattern.

The word punching is a term that comes from the jacquard embroidery machine process.  These instructions come from a tape punched with holes that tells the machine's frame how to move and sew the embroidered design.  That was indeed very interesting process. Today the process is different. A digitizer uses expensive software to plot each point on a computer or graphic tablet.  The finished product is saved to a diskette or just emailed  for use with the embroidery machine.

Take a look at samples below:
