About HUS
Husqvarna Viking made HUS for its Designer embroidery machines from the late 1990s on, before VP3 took over, and design collections from those years are still full of HUS files.
Its stitches are packed with a compression of their own to save room on the machine's design cards, and its colors are numbers in Husqvarna Viking's thread chart.
Filepeek reads it in your browser and draws every stitch in its thread color, sharp at any zoom, each color a layer in the Threads panel to hide or show alone. Show details gives its size, stitches, colors, jumps and trims, and Export saves it as PNG, SVG, or a PES, DST, JEF or EXP.

Questions
Which threads does it use?
Each color is a number in Husqvarna Viking's thread chart, and Threads lists them by name and number so you can match them.
Can I sew a HUS on another brand's machine?
Yes, once it's saved for it. Choose Export to save it as PES for Brother's machines, DST for Tajima's, JEF for Janome's or EXP for Melco's and Bernina's, with the same stitches.
