EasyPEC




Description

After downloading PES-Files from the Internet some people encountered the problem that their software gave them errors like "Unknown File type". EasyPEC is a conversion tool that reads PES-Files created with Brother PE-Design 1.0, Brother PE-Design 2.0/2.5, Brother PE-Design 3.0 or Brother PE-Design 3.0 and converts them to PE-Design-1.0 PEC-Format. Most programs are able to read in these "old-style" PEC-Files.

If you use one of these programs, then EasyPEC is a must:

EasyPEC has a filter function that checks the version of your PES-Files before trying to convert them:


other application

Just convert any PES-File to a PEC-File. Useful for example if you want to send designfiles via Email. PEC-Files are only about a third in size than the according PES-File.

Brother PE-Design 1.0

You own Brother PE-Design 1.0 or Bernina Artista Designer 1.0. In this case you need to convert only files created with Brother PE-Design 2.0 or newer.

Brother PE-Design 2.0

You own Brother PE-Design 2.0. In this case you need to convert only files created with Brother PE-Design 2.5 or newer.

Brother PE-Design 2.5

You own Brother PE-Design 2.5. In this case you need to convert only files created with Brother PE-Design 3.0. This option will convert a 3.0-PES-File to a 2.5-PES-File. If you want PEC-Files then check option PE-Design 2.0

What's new:

EasyPEC is now capable to convert the new multipart-files created with Brother PE-Design 2.5/3.0. If you convert a 3.0-File to 2.5-File it will convert PES to PES, one file. Otherwise it will extract each part to a separate file. For example you have a file teddy.pes which consists of 4 parts, then EasyPEC will create these four files:

teddy01.pec, teddy02.pec, teddy03.pec,teddy04.pec

Warning

When converting from Version 3.0 to 2.5 EasyPEC renames files to *.old and will delete *.old-files. Therefore I suggest to backup all your files before you use EasyPEC.
