System Requirements
This page lists the recommended Windows system specs for optimal
performance of Sign Wizard 6.5, assuming some large format printing
usage. Neon and vinyl only users can use lesser specs.
| CPU |
At least 1Ghz, the faster the better when using gradients
and transparency features. A recent model video card will improve performance slightly over older models, especially when running the screen at high resolutions, such as 1900x1200. |
| Operating System |
Windows Vista and Windows XP (32-bit and 64-bit) only
Note for Mac owners: The software does function properly under VMWare Fusion for the Mac when used with Intel Macs. With Fusion, Windows is run under a virtual machine and functions as if it was on a real Windows system. We do not recommend this with PowerPC Macs due to the substantial speed hit incurred. Intel Macs are able to execute natively most of the code on the CPU and the speed hit is relatively minor. The USB dongle is fully functional in this virtual environment. |
| RAM |
1GB, depending on the size of prints and the
size of the source images. 3GB is recommended when creating large prints, for example, for vehicle wraps. |
| Hard Drive |
50MB required, 4GB free for RIP scratch
space, layout files, etc. |
