Tags: #TextileDesign #Nedgraphics #Texcelle #CAD #Software #Windows10

Hi everyone,

I’ve noticed a few requests popping up recently regarding the Nedgraphics Texcelle 2016 version 16.1.90.1 download. Since this is a legacy version that sits right on the cusp of modern OS requirements, I wanted to put together a quick post regarding what you need to know before trying to install or run this specific build.

Legal & Ethical Reminder

Nedgraphics Texcelle is proprietary software protected by copyright laws. Version 16.1.90.1 is not abandonware. Despite its age, the intellectual property remains owned by Lectra SA. Distributing or downloading cracked versions exposes you and your company to legal liability, fines, and network security risks. Always verify your license entitlement before seeking a download.

2. Contact Your Local Lectra/Nedgraphics Reseller

Resellers often keep offline archives of older installers for clients with legacy hardware. Provide them with your license dongle ID or proof of purchase.

2. First launch: essential configuration

• Open Texcelle and set the units (cm/mm/in) in Preferences to match your production specs.
• Load your color library (Pantone/brand library) via Color Manager so simulations match production colors.
• Configure scan/import paths and a default working directory to keep large files organized.
• Calibrate screen/profile: if you rely on on-screen color, load an ICC profile from your monitor or use a calibrated display.
