VP3 file

VP3 (Pfaff/Husqvarna) is a modern, tag-based format with nested sections for threads, stitch runs, and hoop-centric data.

What is a VP3 file?

VP3 arranges data in tagged, nested packets (embroidery summary, hoop-centered blocks, thread packets, stitch runs). Used in modern Pfaff/Husqvarna workflows.

Features & use

  • More structured than simple stitch formats (richer metadata).
  • Can theoretically contain multiple designs/hoops.

Notes

  • Converts well to/from common formats; high-level data may be flattened in low-level targets.
