How to Transfer EXP Files to a Bernina Embroidery Machine

Choose and verify the EXP design on your computer first, then use the transfer method supported by your Bernina machine and software setup.

Bernina EXP Transfer Workflow

  1. Locate the correct EXP design in your organized computer library.
  2. Verify design size, hoop compatibility and any related project files.
  3. Use the transfer method documented for your specific Bernina machine or software version, which may involve USB media, compatible software, network features, or another supported workflow.
  4. Review the design at the machine when a preview is available.
  5. For converted, resized or edited files, verify the stitch result and test when appropriate.

Bernina workflows vary by machine and software generation, so use your model documentation for the final transfer steps.

Keep EXP Files Easy to Find

Use the computer as the master archive so EXP designs, supporting images, PDFs and alternate machine formats stay easier to locate before transfer.
