Capabilities

EazyDraw is a vector based drawing application for desk top publishing (DTP) with Apple's Macintosh OS X (Mac OS-X) operating system. It is an illustration or drawing software application that offers vector-based graphics editing and creation capabilities for creating simple not-photographic drawings, technical diagrams and illustrations such as logos, icons, buttons and stylized art.

And...EazyDraw was designed for you

There are several specialized drawing applications available for the graphic arts, or architectural professional. We all know how much these cost and how hard they are to master. EazyDraw is drawing for the rest of us who want to have fun exploring the creative potential of this great new Macintosh technology.

Now With User Libraries

EazyDraw is very configurable, customize drawing elements like arrows, gradients and dash patterns. Improve productivity with user configurable shortcut keys. Create your own drawing tools and custom tool palettes with User Libraries and their powerful "Tool" mode.

Applications

EazyDraw is a new design tool for use on the Mac OS X platform. Its uses range from simple technical drawings, flow charts, business communications, commercial line art illustrations to graphic elements for application software and web design elements. Educators are also finding EazyDraw to be perfect for introducing new user to computer drawing.

Optimized for Intel: (4 - 5 times faster)

With version 2.0, EazyDraw is provided as a Universal Binary. As you may know, some Macs are now powered by the new Intel Core Duo processor, while for the past several years Macs have been built with a PowerPC processor. EazyDraw has been made to run on both Intel- and PowerPC- based Mac Computers. Simply install as usual and EazyDraw will automatically run at peak performance for you Mac's architecture.

If you are lucky enough to have one of the new Intel Macs, it is even more fun to draw with EazyDraw on your Mac. The Intel processor is generally 4-5 times faster than a PowerPC processor. Now, for many applications you might not notice a big difference; it may be that the application is not that CPU intensive, or the application's core technology may be a carry over from OS 9 and therefore does not utilize the new CPU's capability. But for EazyDraw users working with vector based graphics CPU speed is very important. EazyDraw is a new project, designed from the ground up exclusively for OS-X (a "Cocoa" app), with no design constraints from other operating systems (OS9, or Windows).

At the Cross Roads of Graphic File Formats

EazyDraw is true native OS X application. Graphic exchange with other modern OS X application is quite seamless with full vector quality support for PDF. Our title bar export short-cut icon provides customizable drag and drop export to other applications. But in todays world one must exchange creative content with numerous other technologies: other operating systems, older technology applications, archive graphic files, the world wide web, and electronic publishing work flows -- just to name a few. EazyDraw is the perfect solution for these interesting times.

EazyDraw provides a rich suite of supported graphic file formats for both import and export. This will allow you to use or provide high quality graphic images to or from other applications, other operating systems or the web. And, of course, full seamless support for PDF is "built in" since EazyDraw is a true native Mac OS X application. In most cases you should not need to involve a separate graphic converter application in your work flow. Our "ungroup" capability will let you edit PDF, EPS and PICT content.

File and desktop graphics exchange with older OS 9 technology applications that have been ported to OS X can be a problem for native OS X applications. Programs like Microsoft Word, Power Point and Excel do not provide vector quality support for the PDF graphic information format, they also have limited support for transparency. EazyDraw provides file and desktop paste board support for the "Classic PICT" file format and a "Opaque Copy" option for use with these applications. These legacy file format options provide a method to include the older technology applications in your modern OS X workflow.

For Web publishing EazyDraw provides export to several widely used graphic bitmap formats. These include the Windows formats of BMP, ICO and even favicon. Full support for transparency is provided with all graphic file formats that support transparency.

Electronic publishing is supported with vector PDF and EPS import and export. Color space management and conversion is provided with our professionally grade Export panel for these industry standard formats. Nearly all publishing or printing companies will accept the EPS vector format for graphics and typeset text. Professionals and perfectionist avoid font problems by converting type set text to Bezier paths before exporting to EPS, EazyDraw lets you do the same with a simple menu click.
