PXF

Status

What it is

PXF is associated with Pulse native embroidery workflows and likely stores design information beyond raw stitches.

Satin Studio behavior

Satin Studio documents this format for identification and inspection. It does not open or export the file.

Versions and variants

PXF is a versioned native working format. Its version and object model must be identified before the contents can be interpreted.

File identification notes

Exact structure is unverified here.

Observed structure notes

• PXF remains a native-working-file lead. No reliable public byte structure is established here.
• Expect object, thread, and generated-stitch sections rather than one flat machine stream.

Structure sketch

PXF is a native working-file lead. It should not be decoded as raw stitches before its object model is known.

struct PxfCandidate<'a> {
    version_or_header: &'a [u8],
    object_sections: &'a [PxfSection<'a>],
}

struct PxfSection<'a> {
    kind: Option<&'a str>,
    payload: &'a [u8],
}

Compatibility evidence

The notes above help identify and inspect the format; they do not imply import or export support. Keep the original file and record the machine and software that produced it.
