The Tajima Embroidery Stitch (DST) format is a coordinate-based design file developed by Tajima Industries for controlling automated embroidery machinery. It functions as an industry standard for commercial textile manufacturing, containing low-level commands for needle movements, jumps, and thread trims. This legacy format remains universally compatible with professional embroidery software and is considered safe for processing because it lacks executable code or complex scripting capabilities.

}
Go
