    Flexisign is great! So is Signlab. They are both available in more than one grade/level. As a member you should have access to contact details of companies selling both these products. Give them a ring, they’ll be able to guide you and hopefully tell you whether you need to spend £600 or £2500.

    There are also many other options – do a search on this site.

    Happy days!

    Depends a bit on what sort of work you do, I run both Corel (X3) and Signlab, cutting is always done through SL but some layouts are generated in Corel. If you intend to do alot of one screen digitising of logos then SL’s node editing is good if you do alot of intensive text work ie menus – Corel is far better. Shadows/extrudes are far better in SL but an ordinary drop shadow is just as good in Corel and welded. Any digital print is always generated in Corel, it has colour management as standard and the SL print version is mega bucks. I could easily make my living with Corel Draw only but SL just makes it a bit easier.
