No, vendors who have the conversion software charge $100 per "design",
and as a rule don't give you the file, so if you want to switch vendors
you have to pay the fee again. That's how the embroidery vendor pay
their software fees.

FWIW, in the USA neither LLBean nor Elegant Stitches require OFM files.
