Also, it provides very limited kerning options. There are, though, some important features that are missing, such as support for Pantone Matching System (PMS) colors and multiple pages, and it lacks a gradient mesh tool. Best of all, it provides all this for free, and there is a large network of users to provide support. It can also read Illustrator native files (AI), albeit imperfectly. Like Illustrator, it has limited support as well for raster graphics. It further has a multilingual interface, supporting 90 different languages.Īmong its many features are pen and pencil tools, lots of geometrical primitive tools, text and calligraphy tools, and spray and paint bucket tools.
It also comes with a wide range of quality filters, and its functionality can be extended. While its tool set is not as extensive as Illustrator's, it has most of the tools needed for everyday design work. Overall Opinion: For those designers who can't afford Adobe Illustrator, or for those who work on Linux, Inkscape is a credible alternative.
