Inkscape is an open-source vector imaging application with abilities comparable to Adobe Illustrator. Welcome to the School of Graphic Design's Inkscape Department. In this department, you will learn the basic elements of Inkscape and how to use it to accomplish simple tasks.

[edit] Introduction

An Open Source vector graphics editor, with capabilities similar to Illustrator, CorelDraw, or Xara X, using the W3C standard Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) file format.

Inkscape supports many advanced SVG features (markers, clones, alpha blending, etc.) and great care is taken in designing a streamlined interface. It is very easy to edit nodes, perform complex path operations, trace bitmaps and much more. We also aim to maintain a thriving user and developer community by using open, community-oriented development.
