Serif DrawPlus Starter Edition (formerly Serif DrawPlus)

Serif DrawPlus is an application which allows you to create an animation or drawing for printing and the online platform. Its user interface is similar to the one of other, more popular graphic editing apps.

Thus, you can use a design wizard, build an animation or a drawing. The first option allows you to create advertisements or posters and you can select from a wide range of templates.

Animations are represented by banner ads, horizontal rules, logos and web buttons of various sizes, while a drawing can be made on an A3, A4, letter, tabloid or other types of pages.

Basic drawing tools are available, such as pointer, rotation, node, freehand, quickbox, text, blending, filling and transparency. Also, you can import digital pictures, 3DPlus objects and use a border wizard.

You can convert a drawing to an animation, export files into the WMF, EMF, BMP, TGA, PNG, JPG and other types of media formats, use the "Undo" and "Redo" buttons, replicate or transform the wizard, as well as convert to Bitmap or to curves.

Moreover, you can align or size items, flip, rotate or order objects, create layers and frames, lock the position, enable snapping, and others.

The program takes up a moderate amount of system resources and is extremely easy to use by individuals with any level of experience.

However, we were unable to access the help file (an error message pops up). Otherwise, we strongly recommend Serif DrawPlus to all users.
