Under both licences the fonts may be used to create embroidery files and cut files that you sell. You may not sell the font files themselves. You can also load your own TTF or OTF font in the studio; it never leaves your browser.
Open-source foundations
- pyembroidery (MIT) by Tatarize and contributors: the reference implementation whose format writers and readers we ported to TypeScript and verified against.
- Ink/Stitch (GPL-3.0): used as the reference satin engine for validation, and the source of the thread colour charts (palette data).
- opentype.js (MIT) for glyph outlines; fflate (MIT) for ZIP packaging.
- Sample shapes are traced from Material Design Icons (Apache 2.0).
