Mayura Draw is a vector drawing program that enables you to create quality EPS illustrations.

Unlike bitmap-based "paint" programs, vector-based drawing programs define each object that constitutes the drawing by its co-ordinates and not by pixels.

This enables drawings to be modified easily. Vector based drawings also print at the highest resolution supported by the printer.

Using Mayura Draw you can create illustrations composed of graphical shapes such as rectangles, ellipses, polygons, bezier curves, images and text.

Mayura Draw has powerful tools for editing and transforming graphical shapes. All shapes including images and text can be scaled, rotated, skewed and reflected.

Mayura Draw supports editing bezier curves by manipulating handles.

Mayura Draw imports: AI, WMF, GIF, JPEG, PNG, TIFF and BMP formats.

Mayura Draw exports: SVG, EPS, PS, AI, PDF, WMF, EMF, GIF, JPEG, PNG, BMP and TIFF formats.

Compatibility: Windows XP, 2000, NT, Me, 98, 95.

LaTeX friendly: The EPS files generated by Mayura Draw are suitable for including in LaTeX documents.

Karela Draw is a small CAD-type software application with simple geometric drawing capabilities.

Other than the ability to doodle using the mouse, the program is keyboard-oriented. You can move using the arrow keys, drawing or erasing as you go. Not only can you move in a Cartesian manner (horizontally, vertically and diagonally), you can also set a pole and move around it in a polar manner (radially outward/inward, and angular clockwise/anti-clockwise). This gives you the ability to quickly draw line segments and arcs, the way you would with a ruler and compass - something that you cannot do in standard Paint-type applications.

You can draw lines, circles, rectangles, and regular and irregular polygons. Angles can be drawn and measured too. Most of these operations are performed simply by marking two points and then specifying the object to draw through these points. Enclosed areas can be filled with patterns. Basic block copying, moving and erasing operations are provided.

The program currently saves and loads images in its own .KDI format. But you can also export them to .BMP format to use your drawings in other applications.

A drawing program for creating EPS and WMF illustrations. Draw rectangles, ellipses, polygons and bezier curves; insert bitmaps and text. Point-and-click to choose line width andcolor. Scale, rotate, skew and reflect. Built-in PostScript driver produces best results on printers that support PostScript. Import AI and WMF formats. Exports to EPS, PS, AI, PDF, WMF, antialiased BMP and TIFF formats.

Fractal DRAW is a useful and fast interactive real-time IFS fractal generator that lets you to create various natural and artistic fractal graphics and animations. Which offers you an uniquely intuitive method to visually shape attractive fractals just in a click-and-drag way! It is an easy-to-use and wonderful program for graphics designers, video producers, and fractal artists to create brilliant visual effects!

The fractal shaping principle of Fractal DRAW is based on IFS (Iterated Function System), which generates infinite self-similar graphics by a series of transformations. While shaping fractals with Fractal DRAW, you do not need to use formulas, but draw shapes to form a series of transformations which generates the fractals itself.
Unlike the popular formula-based fractal programs that use color gradients to produce splendid but abstract images of the Mandelbrot set, Julia sets and such. Fractal DRAW is an intuitive shape-based fractal generator which uses living brushes to create realistic fractals such as lifelike fractal plants, dynamic particle effects, naturalistic fractal animations, and more fantastic effects that you can imagine!

Here are some key features of "Fractal Draw":

· Intuitive and creative fractals shaping method.
· Supports affine and projective shaping modes.
· Supports rendering diffusion and alpha blending
· Real-time high-quality rendering and real-time animation recording
· Built-in 230 assorted brushes in 20 different categories
· Built-in 27 real-time blending modes of rendering
· Create lifelike fractal plants

Chasys Draw Artist is a drawing program like no other. Unlike others, which only allow you to make geometrical drawings like lines and circles, Chasys Draw Artist was designed for drawing images that look real enough to easily pass for photos (like the ones used on this page).

In doing their paintings, artists normally use techniques such as blending colors and shading, which, as you may have realized, are either ignored or inadequately implemented in most graphics software. In designing Chasys Draw Artist, my main intention was to address this need, so that you wouldnt need to do all your art on paper then go through the pain of looking for a scanner to digitize it. Chasys Draw Artist is a tool that makes geometrical drawings.

Besides, the computing power of todays computers enables us to do things to images we could only imagine 20, 30 years ago. What is Chasys Draw Artist?

Dieline for Illustrator 10 can reduce production time by drawing the template for you. All you have to do is type in the dimension for the label height/cutoff. Next type in the size of each panel using a space between each dimension. Press return and watch how fast Illustrator 10 draws the template; complete with die and clear colors with corresponding layers.

The script draws the exact dimension lines and arrow heads. This is really cool for designers and Mac production artists. Works in millimeters or inches.

When re-running the script, Draw Dieline can convert last entry used from Millimeters to Inches (and vice versa) if the user changes the measurements.
