Arahne has completed a unique summer project: the full digitization of 黑白经纬织物组织设计图集 下册 (Atlas of Black‑and‑White Warp and Weft Fabric Weave Design, Volume II) by Shen Gan (沈干). This book, published in 2005 and long out of print, is considered one of the most comprehensive...
Designers searching for weaving CAD software often face the same challenge: complex weave structures can be difficult to read, especially when working with advanced jacquard or dobby weaving. With our latest update to the ArahWeave double editor, we’re making that process more intuitive than ever. We’ve introduced...
Arahne is stepping into the art world once again. We’re proud to share that our technology and expertise are part of the newly opened exhibition “Knots and Patterns 2026”, hosted at Stolp Škrlovec in Kranj. As part of the project, our weaving software was used at...
Apple’s latest M‑series computers (M1 through M4) use a fundamentally different hardware architecture and USB framework than traditional PCs. To deliver a consistent, reliable experience for every user, we’ve updated the ArahWeave interface for the NIX Spectro 2 color‑measurement device. As a result, support for the...
Many modern CAD tools have moved toward cloud‑first ecosystems, and plenty of users feel the strain. It’s not just longing for the era when you could save a file to your own drive and know it was yours. The frustration comes from real limitations created...
ArahPaint has a new Spacing parameter in Stamp mode, giving you control over the distance between brushes. As you draw continuously, the spacing between brushes remains consistent. You can hold Ctrl (or Cmd on Mac) to adjust it afterward. Check out the short video tutorial...
The 2025 development cycle delivers more than 915 enhancements across ArahWeave, ArahPaint6, and ArahDrape — all focused on improving speed, stability, and everyday workflow efficiency. Highlights Major performance boosts for large fabrics and complex weaves Increased stability and more reliable jacquard/regulator behavior Cleaner, more intuitive weave...
We've created a custom color profile for Epson’s latest EcoTank photo printers, the ET‑8500 (A4) and ET‑8550 (A3). Both models come equipped with a built‑in scanner and use a six‑color bottled‑ink system, offering excellent value and impressive print quality. Epson provides the Linux driver for...
We’ve added a new space‑saving feature in ArahWeave to optimize the generation of fabric technical data. When converting HTML to PDF or embedding images directly into HTML to create a single file, the program can now automatically remove the separate image files, which are typically...
As textile design increasingly relies on fabric simulations, we often prefer to skip physical printouts and send image files directly to customers for approval. Formats like JPEG or WebP are convenient because they produce small files, but their color accuracy is limited. Colors are converted...
