<br />
The Inkscape community today is announcing the release of the newest<br />
version of its open source vector graphics editor. Inkscape 0.46 is a<br />
major update that introduces native PDF support. The implementation of<br />
PDF support in Inkscape provides an easy, open source solution to<br />
editing PDF documents.<br />
<br />
Tons of new features and performance improvements are included in this<br />
release. Dialogs now have the ability to be docked to the editing<br />
window. Gradients can be edited completely on-canvas. The new Paint<br />
Bucket Tool fills bounded areas with color. A new 3D Box tool helps<br />
create perspective-correct drawings. A new Tweak tool provides an<br />
intuitive method for editing paths and painting objects. The new Live<br />
Path Effects feature can create "brushes" and various organic effects on<br />
paths. Improvements to color management include support for color spaces<br />
other than sRGB. Most SVG filters are now implemented, and a new<br />
powerful UI is provided for editing filter stacks.<br />
