Here’s how the process typically works:

1) Digitization: The image or logo is first digitized using specialized software. During digitization, the digitizer manually traces the design, creating a series of stitches and paths that the embroidery machine will follow.

2) Stitch Types and Density: The digitizer selects appropriate stitch types and densities to accurately represent the details and shapes of the image or logo. Different stitch types, such as satin stitches, fill stitches, and running stitches, may be used depending on the characteristics of the design.

3) Color Matching: Colors within the image or logo are matched to available embroidery thread colors. The digitizer selects thread colors that closely resemble the colors in the original image, ensuring a faithful representation in the embroidered version.

4) Size and Placement: The digitizer adjusts the size and placement of the design to fit the intended embroidery area. Factors such as the size of the embroidery hoop, the dimensions of the fabric, and any size constraints imposed by the design itself are taken into account.

5 File Format: Once the digitization process is complete, the design is saved in a specific embroidery file format (such as .DST, .PES, .EXP, etc.) that is compatible with the embroidery machine.
