Inkscape is an open-source vector graphics editor with capabilities similar to Illustrator, Freehand, CorelDraw, or Xara X, using the W3C standard: the Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) file format. Supported features include: shapes, paths, text, markers, clones, alpha channel blends, transformations, gradients, patterns, and groupings. Inkscape also supports Creative Commons metadata, node editing, layers, complex path operations, bitmap tracing, text on paths, text alignment, direct XML editing, and much more. It can import formats such as Postscript, JPEG, PNG, and TIFF and exports PNG as well as many vector-based formats.

The main goal of Inkscape is to create a powerful and comfortable drawing tool, fully compatible with XML, SVG, and CSS standards. They also want to maintain a thriving user and developer community using an open, community-oriented development system, and ensure that Inkscape is easy to learn, use, and improve.
