Image2Punch Pro2.2

Image2Punch Pro is a comprehensive piece of software dedicated to more advanced users to help create perforated patterns by either using the built-in drawing and image manipulation tools or by opening any type of digital pictures.

Draw and generate perforated models

The app comes with a clear-cut and neat interface, divided into an editing pad and a navigator panel, which includes the imaging and tooling tabs. It's recommended to consult the help file in order to understand what each function does.

Two design stages to help you get the best patterns

You have the choice to start from scratch or open an existing photo from the computer in one of the following formats: BMP, DIB, JPG, GIF, JPE, EMF, WMF, TIF, ICO or PNG.Image2Punch Pro consists of two phases you need to go through in order to get the perforated pattern design you aim for. The first stage is the Imaging Design Environment, while the second is the Tooling Generation Environment.

Apply effects and adjustments

The first phase consists of drawing the pattern you want or import the desired image, apply corrections (e.g. saturation, brightness, solarize, invert) and effects (blur, sharp, emboss, pixellate). In addition, you can resize, trim, rotate and flip the design.

Add and configure the selection tools

Once the creation is done, you can proceed to generate the perforated pattern by selecting the desired shape tool, like round, square, rectangle, hexagon or cluster.Each element can be modified to fit your needs. What's more, from the toolbar, you have the option to create your own tools by entering a fitting name, width, height, color and station.

Produce professional-looking markings

From the "Tooling" panel, the app lets you choose the perforation type (45 degrees, proportional), the data range classification and material property. After everything is set, simply press the "Generate" button, and the design is going to be displayed in the middle. The pattern can be saved as JPG or DXF file format.

Professional pattern creator

To sum it up, Image2Punch Pro is a reliable application designed to offer easy means to make and generate perforated patterns for personal or professional usage. It features a rich selection of shape tools.
