What’s difference between Corel Laser and Laser DRW?
Do you need both?
Is one preferred over the other?
I really prefer to use Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop over Corel Draw But if it’s only a gateway to the laser cutter its self, then I’m fine with that… Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated, thanks.

CorelLaser is a plugin for CorelDraw. LaserDRW is a standalone software that is pretty average. You don’t need both. Stick with CorelLaser.

I use AI to design, then either save as AI9 format or SVG. Then import into CorelDraw/CorelLaser, hit cut/engrave.

CorelLaser is much better than LaserDrw. There is a corelDraw 5x download with a crack on here somewhere. I have used it and works great. I bought CorelDraw X7 home and student but CorelLaser doesnt work unless its a corporate version for some reason…

Anyway CorelDraw and CorelLaser will do all you need pretty much
