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. Comments: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.
