Comment 20 for bug 247463

OK, got the files into the correct folder and have the PHP interpreter for Windows. PES files come into Inkscape just fine! Yee Haw!!!

Now, how about writing PES files?

I can see that writing PES fomat might be a non-trivial task. For one thing, in the Imported files you can see that the "fill" areas are actually individual stitching lines which is what you would expect for an embroidery object. I think we will need an external program that would "fill" an area in Inkscape with stitching lines instead of the usual paint bucket fill. You would probably need to be able to specify the density of the stitches and the maximum (and minimum) stitch length.

I think we're close, though. If we can read the format surely we can write it back out???
