Before You Start
What to Share Before Starting Your Project
Here's what we need from you to ensure seamless digitization of your designs.
Step 1
The Correct Size
Always specify the accurate size for your design. You only need to give us one dimension — we'll proportionately adjust the other to maintain the design's integrity.
- Average Cap Size: 2" height × proportional width
- Maximum Cap Size: 2.25" × proportional width
- Average Left Chest: 3.5" width × proportional height
- Max Left Chest: 4.5" width × proportional height
Step 2
Color Information
If your design has specific color requirements, please provide the details. We aim to match your desired colors as closely as possible. For example, if you request "1 color, Red," we'll digitize the red elements and leave the rest empty for your fabric to show through. Being specific with your color preferences helps us get it right the first time.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about embroidery digitizing.
Can't find an answer? Email us at support@embpunch.com
Get Started FreeA quality digitizing file runs cleanly on a real machine — minimal thread breaks, consistent tension, sharp edges, and no puckering on fabric. This requires correct underlay stitching, fabric-specific density settings, proper pull compensation so lettering stays aligned after stitching, and logical sequencing that reduces unnecessary trims and color changes. At EmbPunch, every file is hand-punched — never auto-digitized — by digitizers trained on physical embroidery machines.
Yes, and it's free. Any left chest or flat design we create can be converted into a cap-ready file at no extra charge. Cap digitizing requires a completely different approach — center-out sequencing, push-back technique to prevent shifting on curved surfaces — and we handle all of that automatically when you request a cap conversion.
Most designs are ready within 2–4 hours. Simple logos can be completed in as little as 35 minutes. Rush service is available for an additional $2 per design.
Both. We regularly digitize for home machines including Brother PE series, Janome, Baby Lock, Singer, and Bernina, as well as commercial machines from Tajima, Barudan, Melco, Happy, and Ricoma. The file is optimized specifically for your machine type, not a generic output.
After. We digitize your design first, then you review the digital proof. If you're happy, you pay and download. If you need changes, request them for free. You never pay for something you haven't approved.
Yes. We work with embroidery shops, promotional product companies, and apparel decorators that send 10–500+ designs per week. Our order management system lets you place orders, track progress, request edits, and download files all in one place. For bulk digitizing pricing, email us at support@embpunch.com.
Absolutely. All files are stored in your private 256-bit SSL encrypted account and are never shared, resold, or used as samples without your permission. Your designs are backed up permanently — you can re-download any file you've ever ordered, at any time, at no extra cost.
Yes. If you're genuinely unhappy with the final result after revisions, we offer a full refund. In practice this is rare — our revision process resolves issues before it gets to that point — but the guarantee exists because we stand behind every file we deliver.
