  • Encrypted Embroidery Design: The file holds secure design patterns that are protected by encryption.
  • CNC Setup Schedule: Some files work as a schedule for CNC machines, containing setup data and machine instructions. This type is used with software from TruTops Bending or TubeInspect. More information is available at TRUMPF.
  • Rich Text Format Document: Other EIN files use the RTF structure for text data and can be opened with Microsoft Word.
  • Expert Engineers Project File: A few files store project data for engineering tasks that require specialized tools.
