STS to EMF Conversion: FAQ
What are STS files?
An STS file contains a two-dimensional vector representation of the bottom solder mask which makes up a printed circuit board (PCB), and it is most likely created and processed with Eagle software. STS is part of a larger family of extensions called Gerber, which represent the de facto standard used in the PCB industry. Gerber files describe various aspects of electronic boards, including copper layers, solder masks, electrical connections, drilling or milling data. Similar formats include SOL, STC and PLC.
What are EMF files?
EMF (Enhanced Metafile) is a format used by the Windows operating system to store spooling information connected to printing. The term "spooling" comes from the acronym for "simultaneous peripheral operations online" and represents the creation of a list of tasks scheduled for completion by Windows at a later time. EMF files can contain vector or bitmap components and they replaced the original WMF (Windows Metafile) format, using a 32-bit structure instead of a 16-bit one and thus providing better quality of printing.
