I haven't even looked because I don't use the other program. I am not interested in what it can and cannot do. I don't see how there can be a meaningful comparison between them because they are so vastly different.
I say, let the entrants use any and all plug-ins, any and all fonts, and let them show us what they can do. It isn't a comparison of software anyway, it is a comparison of engraving talent. Software is meaningless without the individual using it. As such, any software comparison, unless used by complete novices to it, relies as much on the user as on the software. So it isn't about the software after all, but about what the engraver can do. It is not a competition which can be meaningful. Jari Williamsson wrote: > David H.
