- Check Plot Files can be sent to customer upon request
- Customer Profiles can ensure standards for each order
- Area Ratio Verification
Software
Valor is one of the biggest names in the stencil design industry. We have been using Valor since 2000. This is the main software suite that we use to design stencils. Not only are we able to receive the following file types, but if you need a file converted to a different file type please talk to your Photo Stencil representative and we will do out best to help you. We have developed extensive custom automated processes using the Valor software. We also can create a customer footprint library for your standard modifications that ensures repeatable and reliable modifications each time.
