LED Wizard 8 creates LED layouts for channel letters and cabinets from imported artwork. Its population workflow automates layout creation, while an artwork cleanup tool prepares imports and a freehand vector tool lets users draw shapes to populate with LEDs. Existing layouts can be scaled graphically or numerically in one step. For non-rectangular cabinets, Stik layouts support circles, ellipses, and cloud signs. The free Standard Edition includes auto layouts, title blocks with statistics, scaling, and a streamlined workflow. Production Edition adds channel letter return plots, a router layer, mounting-hole automation, and full-scale DXF export for $24.95 a month. Documentation is free; Basic Support is $24.95 a month, and Premium Support is $49.95 a month. Basic Support includes email and phone help, while Premium adds online expert sessions and ticket tracking. LED Wizard 8 is cloud based and requires internet access at launch and while running.
