VinylMaster
What it is
VinylMaster is Windows graphics software for creating signs, decals, banners, posters, lettering, shapes, and logos. It comes in five editions: CUT, LTR, PRO, DSR, and XPT. Cutting tools include contour cutting, auto-cut, weeding, and an interactive vinyl spooler; print-and-cut production is supported. DSR adds vector and image effects, cut-document editing, and nesting features. XPT includes a RIP for wide-format printing, while DSR does not. The maker says the software supports more than 5,000 cutters and hundreds of printers, but notes that not every device is supported. Supported operating systems are Windows 8.1, 10, and 11. A free demo is available. One-time purchases range from $59 for CUT to $995 for XPT; monthly subscriptions are also listed for LTR, PRO, DSR, and XPT, from $8.95 to $49.75 per month. Access rights and permissions are available only in DSR and XPT. Support includes a help manual, tutorials, a knowledge base, and technical assistance.
