Hello, I'm buying a Macbook Pro and want to confirm if RDWORKS is compatible with iOS. If not then what is a good way to go about it?

Answer by Sean Hill

No, there is no version of this software compatible with Mac OS X. For all the machines listed on the official website, RDWorks is listed as being compatible with Windows. No machine or software is compatible with Mac OS.


You will have to use Bootcamp to install Windows on your Mac in order to have the full functionality of the RDWorks software. It requires drivers which means Paralells Desktop and Wine Bottler are not suitable.

I have a problem with this software because this software can't connect with the machine laser. I don't know why and I need help.

Answer by Sean Hill

To connect to the laser machine, you will have to change the IP address of the network adapter to 192.168.1.30 or higher. Leave the DNS mask as 255.255.255.0 and ignore the gateway and DNS servers in place.


Switch to RDWorks, then click on the Port Setting, and double click the IP with ending in 100. Press on TEST and you'll see a message saying Port test succeeded.


Note: It's mandatory to set the IP 30 or higher else the machine won't communicate with the PC.

There is a tutorial file provided by the Gphsmanufacturing in which you can find the necessary instructions on how to properly design a text with curve effects plus other features that are available with this software. You can download the PDF file using the link posted below. Also, make sure that you have a compatible PDF reader installed on your PC so you can open and read the file properly.

Hello all, from my point of view this is a good software, anyway, when I save a file and try to open it again, RD Works 8 (installed on Windows 10) doesn't open its file and report the following error:


'File format error! please check the file version'.


Any tips useful to fix this problem will be very appreciated! Thank you!

The developers of the application have created a forum where users can create threads regarding their problems. I recommend you do the same since I couldn't find anything related to your inquiry.

How do I change the units from millimeters to inches? I tried using the settings, but even if you change it there, it doesn't work on the display.

Answer by Stephen Prastman

As far as I know, you can't make the grid that appears on the home screen display inches instead of millimeters. However, RDWorks does have a help file which you could search for additional information. Furthermore, there's a forum created specifically for RDWorks users and I recommend posting your question there and you will probably get the answer you need.
