We work from CorelDraw but can directly work from files in Dxf, AI and a selection of other formats. You can start with your own design sent to us in one of a number of formats. However, mainly we love great design and helping to bring your ideas to life. We just wanted you to know that we are not all about computer stuff here at the hive. Yes, of course we are tech geeks.
