Inkscape. Draw Freely.
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
[https://inkscape.org/](https://inkscape.org/)
|
|
|
|
Inkscape is a Free and open source vector graphics editor. It offers a rich set
|
|
of features and is widely used for both artistic and technical illustrations
|
|
such as cartoons, clip art, logos, typography, diagramming and flowcharting.
|
|
It uses vector graphics to allow for sharp printouts and renderings at
|
|
unlimited resolution and is not bound to a fixed number of pixels like raster
|
|
graphics. Inkscape uses the standardized SVG file format as its main format,
|
|
which is supported by many other applications including web browsers.
|
|
|
|
SVG Features include basic shapes, paths, text, markers, clones,
|
|
alpha blending, transforms, gradients, and grouping.
|
|
In addition, Inkscape supports Creative Commons meta-data, node-editing,
|
|
layers, complex path operations, text-on-path, and SVG XML editing.
|
|
It also imports several formats like EPS, Postscript,
|
|
JPEG, PNG, BMP, and TIFF and exports PNG as well as multiple vector-based
|
|
formats.
|
|
|
|
Inkscape's main motivations are to provide the Open Source community
|
|
with a fully W3C compliant XML, SVG, and CSS2 drawing tool emphasizing a
|
|
lightweight core with powerful features added as extensions, and the
|
|
establishment of a friendly, open, community-oriented development
|
|
processes.
