The &#8216;effects&#8217; menu holds a set of customizable plug-ins, and more can be easily downloaded and installed. This gives a third-party developer boost to Inkscape, because it now has a small community of plug-in writers making little improvements and adding impressive features to the editor. This works similar to the third-party developer community around the Gimp and Firefox. Inkscape can export to a wide variety of file formats, including image files, PDFs, Adobe Illustrator .IA, encapsulated postscript, LaTeX, and many others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Inkscape is a free, open source vector graphics editor in the same vein as Adobe Illustrator and Xara Xtreme.
