Section 2-9
C. Recommended Software Programs
ULS does not guarantee software compatibility with any off-the-shelf software program that has
not been written by ULS. However, the following suggested programs are widely used by ULS
customers and are considered to be the most functional and compatible programs to use with the
laser system.
•
Vector Graphics Programs (user supplied)
CorelDRAW 12 or X3**, Adobe Illustrator CS
•
Bitmap / Scanning Software (user supplied)
Corel PHOTO-PAINT or Adobe Photoshop
•
Raster to Vector Conversion Software (user supplied)
CorelTRACE
•
CAD Software (user supplied)
AutoCAD for Windows
•
FONTS (user supplied)
Use True Type fonts ONLY. Do not use PostScript or bitmapped fonts.
**Most users purchase the CorelDRAW 12 or CorelDRAW X3 Graphics Suite package
which contains all the software necessary to operate the PLS to its fullest capability.
Earlier versions of CorelDRAW have experienced problems with the XP operating system,
which in turn, causes problems with the operation of the PLS. As a result ULS
recommends CorelDRAW 12 over earlier versions. Whether you decide to use
CorelDRAW12 or a different graphics software package, it is critical that you fully
understand how to use the software in order to successfully operate the PLS. While ULS
has made reasonable efforts to make the PLS as compatible as possible with graphics and
CAD software written for the Windows XP operating systems, ULS cannot guarantee
complete compatibility with any software not manufactured by ULS.
Once you have installed your preferred software according to the manufactures instructions you
will need to configure your graphics software according to our instructions.
Proceed to section 3 to continue with the
software configuration.
