What this service involves

Apparel CAD workflows depend on compatible pattern data, file formats, software configuration and the way teams exchange information. File conversion can help teams share pattern information across supported systems, while implementation and training support more consistent day-to-day use. Compatibility and the exact conversion route should be checked against the source and target formats before work begins.

Frequently asked questions

Which CAD formats can you convert?

PatternSouk has supported multiple apparel CAD formats. The exact source and target formats must be checked before confirming compatibility.

Will every detail transfer perfectly between systems?

Not necessarily. Different formats may store grading, internal lines, notches, annotations and nesting information differently. We review the specific files and requirements first.

Do you provide CAD training?

Training and consultancy can be discussed based on your software, team experience and the workflow you want to improve.
