| Inkscape is a powerful, free, cross-platform, vector-based
drawing tool similar to Adobe Illustrator and CorelDRAW. The
Book of Inkscape, written by Inkscape developer and graphic
designer Dmitry Kirsanov, is an in-depth guide to Inkscape,
offering comprehensive coverage and creative advice on
Inkscape's many capabilities. Kirsanov draws on his
experience using Inkscape for design and illustration as
well as his extensive knowledge of Inkscape's features,
several of which he developed. Following an overview of
vector-based graphics in general and SVG in particular,
Kirsanov takes the reader from basic techniques-selecting,
transforming, styling-to more advanced topics such as
gradients and patterns, path editing, artistic drawing,
clones and patterns, working with text, exporting bitmaps,
and using extensions. The Book of Inkscape is a complete
guide to Inkscape for every artist, whether amateur or
professional.
