Software for Edge-2

[VeritasCustom]

What is my least expensive option on software to output to an Edge-2? I currently use Adobe CS for design. I bought my work's old Edge-2 & Plotter but couldn't take Omega because we still use it. Thank you in advance!

I would recommend Omega then signlab then flexi-pro!

I'd love to hear more comments on this topic, too. (since I'm looking at buying new software myself.)

I like that Omega has the "spectratone" stuff figured out for you, (so you can do all the different solid 2-color mixes for spot colors), but I don't know if its really that useful, or if any of the other software brands do similar things.

I use spectratones on my edge all the time - more options for solid color instead of having to go cmyk

I agree too....OMEGA....is the first choice for software to use with Gerber equipment and is a darn good design software on it's own! I have more copies than I need right now though, maybe I should sell one hmmm....

we use spectratones all the time here too. it helps alot when having to match a pantone just check the book and see if there's a match or something close to it.

I have Omega, Signlab, and Flexi-pro. I use Omega with my Edge. It just works better and there is no surprises. I don't use the Spectratones, but I like using Omega for all my cut vinyl designing. I use Corel for all of my large format printing and import into Flexi.
