Use Export Threads to Embroidery 
to create a .vp4 embroidery from the selected My Threads database to act as a backup, or to give to another user.
Export Threads to Embroidery 
saves all the thread definitions in the selected My Threads database as a .vp4 embroidery using the thread database name, with a block for each thread color.
When imported using Import Threads From Embroidery
