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...
ArahWeave stores fabric technical data in HTML format, along with images such as the customer’s logo, fabric simulations, and weave. However, when sharing or copying the HTML file, the associated image files must also be included in the same directory; otherwise, they will not display. We’ve...
Converting hand-drawn drafts into digital weaves can be a slow tedious process. While ArahPaint’s Guess weave tool usually does the trick of automatically converting weave images into digital ones, some weave prints are just too rough. Luckily, ArahPaint and ArahWeave offer powerful tools to help...
We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve digitized 1731 weaves from Emil Jansen’s Textile Design Book: A Practical Composition for the Construction of New Designs, originally published in 1898 in Paterson, New Jersey. This remarkable collection is now part of the ArahWeave weave library and ready...
At Arahne, we’re always looking for ways to streamline the textile design process while maintaining high-quality results. One of our latest features involves reusing weaves that were originally created through color-shading technique in ArahWeave. These weaves, rich in detail and structure, serve as a powerful...
