Laurel leaves, a shield and lettering, planned so the small detail is still readable at three inches.

The difference

Thread breaks are usually a file problem.

An automatic converter traces the edges of your artwork and fills them in. It has no opinion about the fabric you are sewing on, and the fabric is the only thing that matters once the hoop is in the machine. Here is what a person decides instead.

Density set for the fabric

Too dense and the fabric puckers. Too light and the design looks thin. Density follows the weight and weave of what you are sewing on.

Underlay that holds it up

Without the right underlay, designs sink into fleece, piqué and terry and the edges go soft.

Push-pull compensation

Fabric moves while it is stitched, so shapes are drawn wrong on purpose to finish the right size.

Sewing order that behaves

Fewer jumps and colour changes, and no later block distorting one already sewn.

Tie-ins and tie-offs

Locking stitches, so thread does not unravel in production or in the first wash.

Try It Yourself Runs in your browser

See your own logo drawn as stitches.

Drop a logo in and this reduces it to thread colours and redraws it stitch by stitch, here in your browser. It shows you where a design will fight you: fine lettering, hairline strokes, photographic shading. Nothing is uploaded. The image never leaves this tab.

Drag a logo here, or pick a file. PNG, JPG, SVG or WebP.

Or try

This is a simulation, not a stitch file. It takes a few milliseconds and it cannot set underlay, push-pull compensation or sewing order, which is why automatic conversion fails on real garments. A digitiser on our team plans the production file by hand and sends it in 4–8 hours from £15, in DST, PES, EXP or whatever your machine reads.

    Who does it

    A UK company with its own digitising team.

    PlixaLabs is a trading name of Zorixo Ventures Ltd, registered in England and Wales, with a trading address in Dagenham. The files are made by our own team, employees of our group company in Bengaluru. Nothing goes to a freelancer or a marketplace, which is why the same hand can pick up a repeat order a year later. The pictures below are illustrations, not photographs of our office or our staff.

    In house

    One team, one floor, no outsourcing

    Every digitiser is an employee of our group. Work is never passed to freelancers or marketplace sellers, so the standard does not change from one order to the next.

    The lights never go off

    Shifts hand over around the clock, so a logo sent at closing time is already on somebody's screen.

    Crews for the tricky jobs

    A structured cap front, a 3D puff logo or a Coloreel design goes to a digitiser signed off on that technique.

    FAQ

    The questions we actually get asked.

    Yes. Orders are invoiced by Zorixo Ventures Ltd (company number 15975548, VAT number GB 506 4612 12), and every B2B order includes a VAT invoice. Approved trade accounts can also pay on Net-30: see UK trade accounts.
    Standard files take 4–8 hours, rush 2–4 hours and super rush 1–2 hours, and both faster options add 50%. The team works 24/7, weekends and bank holidays included, so a standard order sent at 9am is due by 5pm the same day, and one sent at 6pm is due by 2am.
    Brother machines read PES files and Tajima machines read DST. We also supply JEF, VP3, EXP, HUS, TAP and others. Put your machine make and model on the order and we send the right file at no extra cost; the file formats guide explains each extension.
    Fixed prices per design start at £15, however many stitches the design has. Caps, 3D puff, jacket backs, patches, appliqué, Coloreel and vector artwork each have their own flat price, and rush or super rush adds 50%. See the UK price list.
    By a person. A digitiser employed by our group plans each file by hand, and no auto-digitising tool is used at any stage. Work is never passed to freelancers or marketplace sellers.
    We convert artwork into a stitch file your embroidery machine can sew (in the US this is spelt digitizing). That means choosing stitch types, angles, density, underlay and the order colours sew in for your fabric, then saving the design in your machine's format. Our guide explains what embroidery digitising is in more depth.
    Send us a photo of the sew-out and tell us the fabric and machine. Revisions are unlimited with no time limit, so we adjust density, underlay or stitch order until the design runs cleanly.
