Graphic Arts Drawing Program DrawPlus X2 Free After Rebate

If you use your computer for any kind of graphic arts (or would like to) for things like designing posters, brochures, floor plans or other art projects, here's a software program that's free after rebate right now. It's the versatile and feature-filled program DrawPlus X2 by Serif Software. Buy.com is selling it for $82.00 (reduced from $99.99), and there is an $82.00 mail-in rebate for purchases made by August 24th. They even make the budget shipping free, so basically your cost is nothing.

Not too bad for a package that's got lots of tools to make your projects pop. And for those of us who have Vista running on our PCs, it's Vista-compatible, so this may help your art program work more efficiently (my old PhotoShop version doesn't like Vista too much and sometimes crashes even though I run it in compatibility mode).

DrawPlus X2 lets you create eye-catching professional-standard drawings, designs and animations. Its versatility, power and usability make easy work of artistic painting, easy shapes and smart fills, scaled plans, diagrams and flowcharts. There are interactive animation controls with Flash output for slick and efficient web graphics. All this complemented by on-screen help plus project tutorials, fast and friendly editing tools, and easily-accessible galleries of ready-made objects, palettes, brushes and special effects.

You can make drawings leap to life using animation and share them as videos, Flash animations or animated GIFs. It has full PDF editing capability, essential for business professionals. DrawPlus X2 is able to open and edit PDFs just as you would edit a standard DrawPlus document. DrawPlus allows you to add, delete and edit elements of the design and export it back to PDF, ideal for sharing with anyone, anywhere in the world.

For some fun projects it’s quick and easy to create stylish flow charts, family trees and complex diagrams. There are more tools like AutoTrace for converting photo-style images into collections of editable shapes and apply special effects for unique results.
