1 PART I GravoStyle5-Laser Introduction I. INTRO GravoStyle 5 Laser is designed is a component of GravoStyle5 for use with the Gravograph/New Hermes and other manufacturer Laser Engravers. Combined with GravoStyle Rotary, it provides a single platform for your entire rotary and laser engraving software needs. GravoStyle5-Laser has many new benefits that make designing jobs for your Gravograph Laser much easier. One of the most beneficial features is the capability to save your power and speed settings with the job (Gravograph lasers only). No longer will you have to remember the settings the last time you engraved the Job. The purpose of this section is to familiarize you with the layout of the GravoStyle 5 Laser Software. From the beginning you will notice that the software looks different than anything you have seen in the past, in the Engraving world. GravoStyle 5 Laser is a true 32 bit engraving program that uses larger full color Icons and toolbars. It also allows you to select your defaults in the program to optimize your setup time for a job. It also has many useful interfaces to reduce your frustration with designing laser engraving jobs such as changing line weight, filling vector artwork, lasering bitmaps, stamps and barcodes.

In order to make GravoStyle5-Laser easier to use you can place the toolbars anywhere on your screen to make them easier to get at.
