Software: Inkscape, Docspell, and Organize
-
What Is Inkscape and What Can You Do With It?
The first time I heard the word Inkscape, I thought it was Ink-escape, alluding to the ease of use of the software, just like an imaginary ink escaping from your mind to the software to bring forth the magnificent design ideas from your imagination.
I was disappointed to know it wasn’t the idea behind the name, but fortunately the software is as easy to use as I imagined.
And the name is combined from two words “ink” and “scape”; ink is used for final products in design, so suggesting the practical aspect of the software that it is used for creating ready-for-use illustrations and designs, and scape denoting a scene of a large number of objects, thus alludes to the object-oriented nature to vector graphics.Inkscape is an open-source vector graphics editor.
What are vector graphics? Vector graphics, opposing to raster graphics, use mathematical equations to describe paths and objects instead of pixels, which leads to unlimited resolution, yes! No matter how you zoom in; these don’t pixelate.
Inkscape is free of charge, meaning that you don’t pay a dime to download and use Inkscape.Now you may think that most open-source applications are counter-productive; because they don’t have enough features. But I am telling you, that is not the case with Inkscape.
