Free BX Embroidery Fonts that resize without restitching.
The most flexible embroidery font format. Type your text, pick any size, and stitch — one BX file works from 0.5" to 5" with zero quality loss.
What is a BX embroidery font?
BX is an embroidery font format developed for Embrilliance software. Unlike PES or DST files that store finished stitch data at a fixed size, a BX file stores the font outlines and lets the software calculate stitches at the exact size you type.
That makes BX the gold standard for serious home embroiderers — it behaves like a real font. You can create BX and every other format instantly with our free embroidery font generator.
Built for how embroiderers actually work
Resize without restitching
BX fonts are outline-based. Type at any size and Embrilliance or Hatch recalculates stitch density automatically — no quality loss at 0.5" or 5".
Kerning stays perfect
BX stores letter-spacing data, so words look right at every size. Fixed-stitch formats drift out of alignment when you scale them.
Color sequences preserved
Thread color changes are embedded directly in the BX file. No manual color-stop editing inside your software before you stitch.
Embrilliance & Hatch ready
Every file is tested in Embrilliance Stitch Artist, Embroidery+, AlphaTricks, and Hatch Embroidery Designer before release.

BX font questions, answered
What is a BX font?
A BX font is an embroidery font format built for Embrilliance software. Instead of storing finished stitches at a fixed size, a BX file stores the font outlines and lets the software recalculate stitch density at whatever size you type — so one file works at 0.5" or 5" with no quality loss.
How do I install free BX fonts in Embrilliance?
Download the .bx file, open Embrilliance, go to Help → Install BX Fonts, and select the file. The font appears instantly in your font list. In AlphaTricks and Embroidery+ it works the same way — no restart needed.
Are the BX fonts really free for Embrilliance?
Yes. Our free tier gives you BX fonts for Embrilliance with no watermarks, covering personal and small commercial use. You can type, resize, and stitch immediately after installing.
Do BX fonts work in Hatch?
Yes. Hatch Embroidery Designer (v2 and above) imports BX fonts through Manage → Fonts → Import. Once imported, the BX font is added to your Hatch font library and behaves like any built-in font.
Can I make a BX monogram with these fonts?
Yes. Our BX monogram fonts include the letter overlap and spacing data Embrilliance needs, so 1–3 letter initials sit cleanly without thread buildup at intersections. Just type the initials and stitch.
What is the difference between BX and PES?
BX is an outline font that resizes freely inside Embrilliance or Hatch. PES is a fixed-stitch file that runs directly on Brother machines but loses quality when resized. Use BX for flexible typing in software; use PES to stitch straight from a Brother machine.
