Vectorization Tools

VinylMaster DSR software is quite possibly the best vinyl cutting software on the market today. With built in vectorization tools, compatibility with all the major image formats, even low quality jpeg and bitmap images, VinylMaster DSR can quickly and easily turn a broad variety of images into cuttable vector path designs in seconds. Simply use the VinylMaster DSR image trace feature on any image and it will be converted into a plotting file ready to cut or make further edits.

Top Notch Vectorizing Capability.

Contour Cutting Wizard

Add registration marks, print, and cut from 1 screen - with helpful prompts from the software wizard.

VinylMaster DSR is equipped to provide precise contour cutting whether your machine works with LAPOS (Laser Positioning Sensor) for manual contour cutting or ARMS (Automatic Registration Mark Sensor) for automatic contour cutting. Contour cutting, cutting the outline around a printed image, is perfected with VinylMaster DSR for applications like stickers and custom printed labels. The GUI that VinylMaster DSR offers provides you with diagrams to preview and modify before completing your contour cuts. This preview will even assist you in loading your media into your cutter correctly. VinylMaster DSR has an advanced feature to allow for sensitivity control over your cutter's optical eye when using the ARMS feature. This feature ensures that your registration marks can be read when cutting matte, gloss, laminated or even reflective material.

Design and Image Editing Tools

VinylMaster DSR functionality includes text tools, curves, shapes, logos, drop shadows and more as well as the ability to import from AI, EPS and PDF files easily. In addition to the VinylMaster DSR variety of tools, there are a number of clipart samples. With dimension and layout tools, your design will be completed accurately while saving material from being wasted. Editing nodes, customizing and adjusting shapes, arc text, and welding and manipulating paths are all easy to use and reliable functions with VinylMaster DSR.

Spool Function

For production runs of vinyl projects which require layering of multiple colors, VinylMaster DSR has an innovative spooling function which is much superior to the competition. Send multiple jobs to the queue and sort by color: only the parts of the design in the specified color will be cut, allowing you to complete multiple multi-layered multi-color workflows without switching between rolls of different colored vinyl.

Licensing

While cutting with VinylMaster DSR is limited to one user, use of the software is available to unlimited users. Your design team, digital printer and vinyl cutter specialist can all collaborate using one license and send the cutting file to the computer connected to your cutter when it's time to actually cut the job. This allows you to design and work from any location.
