What it is
VinylMaster is Windows graphics software for creating artwork and preparing signs, decals, banners, posters, lettering, shapes and logos for cutting or print-and-cut production. It comes in five editions: CUT, LTR, PRO, DSR and XPT. Cutting tools include contour cutting, auto-cut, weeding and an interactive vinyl spooler. DSR adds vector and image effects, cut-document editing and nesting; it is described as full-featured but does not include a RIP. XPT includes a RIP for wide-format printing. The maker says the software supports more than 5,000 cutters and hundreds of printers, while noting that some devices are unsupported. Listed operating systems are Windows 8.1, 10 and 11. There is no free plan, but a free demo is available. One-time purchase prices range from $59 as a one-time purchase for CUT to $995, paid once for XPT. Monthly subscriptions are also listed: LTR $8.95 a month, PRO $14.95 a month, DSR $24.95 a month and XPT $49.75 a month. Access permissions are limited to DSR and XPT.
