Producing vector illustrations is quick and easy using the comprehensive drawing tools, but many of the advanced features which xara pioneered - such as transparency and real-time anti-aliasing - can be applied to both vector and bitmap images.

Rather than falling into the bloatware trap that is common with graphics products, xara has concentrated on creating the worlds best implementation of the essential toolset that designers really need, in order to ensure that working with xara xtreme can be both highly creative and very productive.

As well as all the drawing tools you would expect, xara X offers options such as bevels and contours, automated shadows, multi-stage graduated fills and feathering, pressure sensitive brush stroking.

Xara X can produce compact, highly optimized graphics, making it an ideal choice for creating web graphics, and with this in mind we have added a tools to aid in creating graphics for the web, such as a NavBar tool, image slicing capability and Dreamweaver integration.

Features of "Xara":

· An integrated, ultra-fast, non-destructive photo tool
The new photo tool offers instantaneous editing for even huge photos. All operations are non-destructive, meaning the original image is not affected and all edits are object orientated and undoable. This also means edits like this take practically no file space and so allows ultra compact lossless files. The features include:
Ultra-fast, live & interactive Enhance (brightness, sharpness, saturation etc)
Levels (histogram, color correction and more)
Interactive crop. Again this is non-destructive so you can adjust or un-crop images at any time. An automatic panorama maker photo-stitching feature.

· The worlds fastest, highest quality vector 3D extrude tool
Xara3D has been integrated so you can now extrude objects in 3D. This provides industry leading speed, usability and quality of 3D rendering compared with any other drawing package. It provides live on-canvas 3D dragging and extrude, 3 colored lights than can be dragged around in real-time, and Xaras renowned high quality 3D rendering.

· Major text tool improvements, including real-time liquid text flow around shapes
A new text repel feature allows text to flow around shapes and photos. As youd expect from xara this provides super-fast text re-formatting allowing live and interactive flow of text as you drag the text objects
New live reformatting while resizing text columns and frames
Text underline

· A new website creation feature. Build complete multi-page websites, with the worlds most advanced WYSIWYG page layout controls
Many professional graphic designers already use xara as their primary web graphics tool. Now it can save complete HTML web pages (using XHTML and CSS standards) and using layers it is easy to add mouseover effects and even add pop-ups. The advantage of using xtreme to create web pages is that you get almost complete freedom to position graphics and text anywhere on the page � including semi-transparent graphics and even rotated text - things which would be difficult or impossible with normal web authoring tools. Plus the multi-page feature can be used to create complete multi-page websites. And xtreme creates all the HTML for you.

· New super-high quality vector and photo rendering
A new simplified Quality Control provides five quality steps:
Outline only. This is now fully anti-aliased for higher quality screen display
Outline with blend steps
Full color (no anti-aliasing)
High Quality (full anti-aliasing. Same as previous top quality. Provides image smoothing)
Very high quality (new higher quality, industry best anti-aliasing. New bi-cubic photo display considerably improves the quality of scaled down photos).

· Multi-page documents
Xara xtreme now supports multiple page documents, which means you can use xtreme to produce leaflets, newsletters and much more. Pages can be single or double page spreads (left and right sides) and are arranged vertically, like a word processor or DTP program, with full support for text flow across pages. Xtremes ultra-fast rendering means you can scroll through pages quickly and smoothly, even on very large documents.

· Photo Levels
The new Photo Tool includes a Levels control to adjust brightness levels of images. This single controls offers:
Histogram view of the brightness levels of the image.
Control over input black, white and gamma and output black and white levels. These controls provide a far more powerful way of adjusting brightness, contrast and gamma than the traditional simple brightness and contrast controls.
Single click before and after compare.
Color correction e.g. to adjust for a color cast from using the wrong white balance settings.
Overlaid before and after histograms. As you adjust the levels you can see the original and the modified histogram.

You can now import RAW digital camera files (either using the Import menu option or just drag n drop the file onto the xtreme window).
