A few months ago, I gave up the sign-making app I had been using before, downloaded the trial, and then purchased XFCut, by using this software plugin, I was able to create designs using graphic design software that I was familiar with. and then send the design directly to my Vevor Smart1 desktop vinyl plotter, which brings great convenience to my work and saves a lot of time. This plugin works amazingly well. Highly recommended.
I have sign shop and I recently started looking for a new vinyl cutting software plug-in to replace my current one. The plug-in we currently use is a subscription model, which is too expensive, I started looking for a perpetual licensed cutting software plug-in for my Roland GR2 cutter. After downloading 3 or 4 of them I have chosen yours as the most user friendly and capable software that I can find. It is easy to use and helped me so much!
