In their own words
ApS-Ethos
ApS-Ethos is a Windows embroidery software suite from CadCam Technology, divided into Organiser, Writer, Creative Writer, Innovator, Artisan Plus, and Virtuoso Plus levels. Digitising tools can load or scan image and vector artwork and convert it into embroidery designs automatically. AutoStitch handles image, AI, EPS, and DXF files, and designs can be sent from Corel Draw or Adobe Illustrator for conversion. Smart Text adjusts lettering for its selected size, including openings, underlay, and stitch density. The suite includes more than 150 lettering styles; Innovator adds over 90 emblem shapes and 180 fill, satin, and running-stitch patterns. Organiser stores, transfers, and monitors designs in a network-shareable MS Access-compatible database, imports and exports major industrial machine formats, and connects with embroidery machines. Virtuoso Plus is aimed at high-volume production, design departments, and colleges. Prices are available through main dealers. Registered users can download updates. Laser software development has stopped.
