Macware Launches Logo Design Studio Pro

Macware announced on Thursday the launch of Logo Design Studio Pro, a vector-based logo design application.

The program took two years to write and has had extensive feedback from customers. "When developing our new vector based logo design application, we discussed the core design features with our Logo Design Studio users so we could truly take the Pro version to a new level," said Bruce Lowry, Macwareis President and CEO. "In fact, we quickly realized we needed development to start from scratch in order to deliver an experience that any novice or professional would appreciate."
