It was a forerunner to programs such as Photoshop and one of the leaders in it's day to most of the graphics packages around today. It's old (so am I) but I had learned it backwards and forwards so I still prefer using it even now. I do all my image work with Photostyler 2.0 which I bought when I was using Windows 3.1. Corel is a relatively easy program once you get used to the minor differences to other art packages so I always stick with it. When I was given the demo from Identify where I bought my laser, that was what they were using with results everytime, why change a good thing. I don't print anything to the laser from anything except Corel. That said, I do have CS3 and it is improving. Hi Larry, I don't actually like Photoshop that much, I find it to be over-complicated to get effects which I can do easier in other programs. With the new version of photograv coming out this is something that you should consider if you are on a tight budget.
This is on a mirror (our nightmare usually) but results on wood are just as tremendous. Good result? I think it speaks for itself. 12 mins to engrave at 300dpi 33 speed 100 power. The whole 'processing' less than a minute from crop to laser. This is a picture of my neice Lucy, taken from a colour photograph doing exactly what I said above, only graphic work was to crop the photo. No brainer and simple to use with an excellent result. Choose your recommended settings for wood/metal etc and that's it. Result is a picture that is ready to send directly to the laser. Select any photograph, colour or otherwise, bump up the contrast and brightness, select Etchtone, alter the lines per inch to 300, choose extreme sharpening of 800,5 and click go. I recently got a new filter for Adobe Photoshop works just as well in Corel so no fears there. Well here is one straight out of the OMG folder.
