Artwork Digitizing ServiceConvert Any Artwork to DST, PES, JEF & 20+ Formats
Send us your logo, illustration, or any artwork and our expert digitizers convert it into a professional embroidery stitch file. Every stitch type, direction, and density programmed by hand — not by auto-digitizing software.
What Is Artwork Digitizing?
Artwork digitizing is the process of converting your artwork — a logo, illustration, photograph, or any image — into a digital embroidery stitch file that an embroidery machine can read and stitch onto fabric. The output file (DST, PES, JEF, etc.) contains precise instructions for every stitch: type, direction, density, color sequence, and jump stitches.
At DST Studio, every artwork digitizing order is done by hand. Our professional digitizers open your artwork in embroidery software and manually program every stitch. We never use auto-digitizing software, which produces flat, lifeless results with poor stitch quality. Hand-digitizing produces embroidery that looks professional, sews cleanly, and holds up wash after wash.
Whether you need your company logo digitized for corporate uniforms, a custom design for caps and hats, or a complex illustration for a jacket back — we handle all artwork types and complexities.
Types of Artwork We Digitize
We digitize any type of artwork for any embroidery application — from simple text to complex multi-color illustrations.
Company Logos
Corporate logos, brand marks, and wordmarks digitized for left-chest, caps, jackets, and uniforms. Clean stitch quality that represents your brand professionally.
Custom Illustrations
Complex illustrations, mascots, characters, and artwork digitized with proper stitch types and color sequences for maximum visual impact.
Text & Lettering
Single-color and multi-color text, monograms, and lettering digitized with proper underlay and pull compensation for clean, readable results.
Cap & Hat Embroidery
Artwork digitized specifically for structured caps and hats — with proper density, underlay, and stitch direction to prevent puckering on curved surfaces.
Patches & Emblems
Artwork digitized for patches, emblems, and badges — with border stitching, proper density, and clean edges for professional results.
Jacket Backs & Large Designs
Large-format artwork digitized for jacket backs, bags, and banners — with proper stitch sequencing and color changes for complex multi-color designs.
