Inkscape website
Description: Inkscape is an open source drawing tool with capabilities similar to Illustrator, Freehand, and CorelDraw that uses the W3C standard scalable vector graphics format (SVG). Some supported 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. Latest versions support PDF editing.
Comment: Works very well on Windows, I'm impressed in spite of myself (I've used Illustrator off and on for several years and versions). The interface is sluggish and that is annoying. I hope they can fix that.
