Convert PES to SIX

The PES file extension stands for "Brother PE Embroidery Format", developed by Brother Industries for their embroidery machines. PES files contain detailed instructions for stitching patterns, including design information, colors, and machine commands like "stop", "jump", and "trim". Initially exclusive to Brother machines, the format's utility led to its broader adoption in the embroidery industry. PES files are primarily created using Brother's PE-Design software and are compatible with various home embroidery machines, including Babylock and Bernina.

The SIX file extension, short for "six pixels", is a bitmap graphics format developed by Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) for their terminals and printers. Introduced initially to send bitmap graphics to DEC dot matrix printers like the LA50, SIX later facilitated the transfer of soft fonts to terminals such as the VT220. This format encodes images using a series of six-pixel-high patterns, making it efficient for transmitting graphics over 7-bit serial links. Rediscovered around 2010, SIX remains in use with modern terminal emulators for tasks like video playback.
