Renshaw & Sons Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 hey all, i am currently running v6.3 of vistool, and alter my pictures etc in photoshop for engraving, i was wondering if anyone has V8 with pic engraving module, and is it worth the £1000 upgrade cost, is there a lot of extras in the v8 from v6 ? thanks Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 I've just updated from Vistool6 to Vistool8 a couple of months ago (not with picture engraving) and I would say that the software doesn't have any major differences, apart from the Z profile function,(which is excellent), but when you start using it, it is just so much better.Lots of little improvements which make for a much better all round package. Not really thought about the picture engraving to be honest, but will more than likely purchase the ring and bangle attatchments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renshaw & Sons Posted November 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 i was looking at the ring attachment, but its not available for the compact, seems to be only got the gem/universal with firmware updates ohh well have to stick to manual machine for them.

StevenB Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 v8 is certainly much better than v6. I have the photo engraving add on, but hardly ever use it - I probably wouldn't get it again. The standard picture functions - tracing images etc are good and worth having - I think they're included as standard in the software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
