Why convert CDR to DST?

DST is the Tajima machine-embroidery stitch format. Converting from CDR — CorelDRAW’s native vector graphics format — makes your files easier to share, edit and open everywhere.

Is CDR to DST conversion lossless?

DST uses efficient compression; you can keep quality high while getting a smaller, more compatible file.

Format details

CDR is CorelDRAW’s native vector format, used for logos, layouts and print artwork. As a vector format it scales without quality loss, but it’s proprietary to Corel software.
