Perlickomat Pro – Photo to Bead Pattern Generator Perlickomat Pro converts any photo into a precise production map for bead crafts and textile patterns. The app is designed for creators working with cross-stitch, bead mosaics, bead weaving, pixel art, and other grid-based craft techniques. Using an optimized conversion engine, the application transforms an image into a structured pattern with rows, columns, and a detailed quantity legend. The result can be used directly for production or as a reference map during crafting. Perlickomat Pro focuses on clarity, precision, and fast pattern preparation so creators can move quickly from an image idea to a finished design. How it works The process is simple and structured in four steps. 1. Select the pattern type Choose the production format you want to generate. Supported styles include cross-stitch patterns, bead mosaics, bead weaving layouts, and pixel-based designs. 2. Define the pattern size Set the final dimensions of the pattern. You can work with grid units, pieces, or centimeters depending on your workflow and the size of your project. 3. Configure beads and palette Choose bead shape and size, adjust the color palette, and control color reduction. The system can work with custom palettes and PDF color references used in craft production. 4. Generate the production map Perlickomat Pro converts the image into a detailed pattern divided into sections with clearly numbered rows and columns. A quantity legend shows exactly how many beads or stitches are required for each color.
