What are the limits of Cross-Stitch Pattern Maker?
Everything is generated on your device; photos, names and designs are not uploaded. No AI model or cloud processing is used. JPG, PNG and WebP: up to 20 MB and 16 MP per photo, 50 MB combined, four photos for a book and one for other tools. Photos are normalized to a 640-pixel working copy; complex textures and low contrast may need different settings. SVG and PNG export the selected sheet; PDF includes every sheet, including separate solutions. PDF artwork is rasterized at approximately 200 dpi on A4. SVG contains vector shapes/text and embedded pixels for photo puzzles; original metadata is not retained. Smaller inputs may be needed on mobile. Cancel stops the active worker; changing controls discards stale results. Suggested DMC codes are nearest matches in a curated 24-color subset, not the complete manufacturer catalog or an official color guarantee. Pattern counts are stitches, not skein quantities. The chart uses full stitches only. Enlargement sections have row/column ranges for assembly.
