WinPCSign Pro 2018 – Software Overview

WinPCSign Pro 2018 is a professional signmaking and large-format layout software built for sign shops, vehicle wrap studios, and printing services. It combines robust vector editing, sign-focused layout tools, and direct cutter control to streamline design-to-cut production.

Key Features

• Advanced vector drawing and shape tools for logos, lettering, and artwork.
• Auto-trace and manual node editing for quick conversion of bitmaps to cut-ready vectors.
• Print & cut support with registration marks and cutline export.
• Batch plotting and tiling for large-format outputs.
• Color controls including basic spot color handling and separation tools.
• Direct cutter drivers for many popular plotters and vinyl cutters.
• Professional text and layout tools for banners, decals, and vehicle graphics.

Compatible Devices

• Vinyl cutters / plotters: Graphtec CE/FC Series, Roland CAMM-1, Summa S-Class, GCC
• Print & cut systems: Roland BN/TrueVIS, Mimaki CJV, Mutoh hybrid models

• + many other cutters supported via standard driver & export formats

How It Works

Create or import artwork (AI, EPS, PDF, SVG, TIFF), refine vector paths and apply cutlines or print layouts. Use the auto-trace to convert raster graphics for cutting, set nesting/tiling for large pieces, then send jobs to the printer or cutter using built-in drivers or export formats.

WinPCSign Pro 2018 simplifies production with batch plotting, registration mark generation for print-and-cut, and direct cutter communication for fast job throughput.

Settings & Options

• Trace settings: threshold, smoothing, corner handling, minimum node reduction.
• Cutline options: offset, weed lines, multi-pass, kiss-cut settings.
• Layout controls: tiling, paneling, nesting, step & repeat.
• Print & Cut: registration marks, barcode job IDs, spot color cutline mapping.
• Export formats: EPS, PDF, SVG, DXF, and cutter-specific file types.

Benefits

• Faster sign production with streamlined trace-to-cut workflows.
• Reduced material waste via nesting and optimized tiling.
• Cleaner cut results with precise cutline and weed-line settings.
• Works with a wide range of cutters and print setups for flexible production.
• User-friendly interface suitable for both operators and designers.
