The Husqvarna Designer Ruby can read a number of embroidery file formats: .SHV, .DHV, .HUS, .VIP, .VP3, .PEC, .PCS, .SEW, .JEF, .EXP, .10*, and .DST. One other embroidery file format is accepted. See the manual. It can read the .SH7 stitch format files and .VF3 embroidery font files. It can also read .HTM/ .HTML and .TXT files. With the complimentary 5D software (or a similar package), you can convert most other embroidery files to one that is compatible with the Designer Ruby.

The documentation for many Husqvarna Viking sewing machines is available here: http://www.husqvarnaviking.com/Support . The manual and other useful information for the Designer Ruby is here: http://www.husqvarnaviking.com/support/DESIGNER-RUBY . The current link to the manual is http://www.husqvarnaviking.com/SiteMedia/Products/Machines/Support/Designer_Ruby_manual_ENG_A.pdf?ext=.pdf . The file extensions are listed on page 9:2 (page 100 of the PDF).

I hope this helps.

(I will admit to mostly using the .HUS files with the Designer Ruby.)

Use program compatibility wizard and you'll be able to use the same program in Windows XP also.

  • To start the Program Compatibility Wizard, click Start, click Help and Support, click Find compatible hardware and software for Windows XP, and then, under See Also in the navigation pane, click Program Compatibility Wizard.

SOURCE: Husqvarna Viking sewing machine embroidery

There are two ways to convert the True Type fonts on your computer to embroidery. One is within the program, one is independent. To locate the independent one, locate your Programs folder on your computer then the folder containing your embroidery software. There should be a QuickFont.exe file there you can use. The best way however is to use the one within the program. On your Letter tab, up where the types of fonts are listed with radio buttons, there should be a QF icon. Click on that and you are away. The two programs are not exactly the same and whilst I have forgotten the differences, the one inside the customising program is the better one to use.

SOURCE: I am considering the purchase of a Husqvarna

The rose has been around a long time, I had one, $200 is a good deal, but I would recommend that you at least buy a designer, you'll be glad you did.

Husqvarna Designer Ruby 90

Here is a video about calibrating the Ruby 76. Yes, I know it is not the 90. Husqvarna Viking Designer Diamond 76 Calibrating the Embroidery Hoop - YouTube Well, the only thing you learned there is calibration was supposed to be automatic. Moving right along...

Make sure the embroidery module is seated, i. e. attached to the machine properly. Check that the fabric is tightly hooped and that the inner hoop matches the outer hoop.

There are plastic gears driving the unit that may break yielding a grinding sound. Fine wires in the unit may also break, rendering in inoperative. Such repairs call for a serviceman. No seeing the machine, it is difficult to know what the exact problem is.

I suppose you have used the user's guide built into the machine. It offers detailed instructions on calibration. My Sewnet offers a support link near the bottom of its page. The dealer locator is supplied for your convenience. My apologies for not being of more assistance. I am uncertain of the problem.

Will bernina art-link software work on my brother se 400 machine?

.pes - A stitch-based file format used by Brother and Babylock embroidery home sewing machines. .pec - A stitch-based file format used by Brother and Babylock embroidery home sewing machines. .hus - The stitch-based file format used by Husqvarna/Viking embroidery home sewing machines.
==========================================
The .exp format is a commercial format while .art is a BERNINA-specific embroidery format. Embroidery designs in .art format keep their fancy fill effects even after rescaling the designs whereas the effects may be lost when editing .exp format files on the machine.

My new computer has windows 8 and i use it for embroidery an my machine will not run on windows 8. it is a Viking ruby made by Husqvarna

You'll need to go to the Viking site and see if they have an update to the software. Otherwise you'll need to buy an older machine to use for the embroidery software.

Embroidery stick

Four questions:
What model Husqvarna sewing machine are you using?
Are you using a Husqvarna formatted USB stick?
Is the embroidery unit attached when you put in the stick?
Is your machine using the latest version of its software?

I might be able to give some more specific help once I know the answers to the above.
