GIMP is an advanced picture editor. You can use it to edit, enhance, and retouch photos and scans, create drawings, and make your own images. It has a large collection of professional-level editing tools and filters, similar to the ones you might find in Photoshop. Numerous fine-control settings and features like layers, paths, masks, and scripting give you total control over your images.

Many image file formats are supported, including JPEG, Photoshop (.psd), and Paint Shop Pro (.psp) files. It can also be used to scan and print photos.

To open files remotely (like over HTTP), install the gvfs-backends package.

To use a MIDI device (like a musical keyboard) as an input controller in GIMP, install libasound2 and read the how-to at /usr/share/doc/gimp/README.MIDI

Inkscape is an illustration editor which has everything needed to create professional-quality computer art. You can use it to make diagrams and illustrations, technical drawings, web graphics, clip art, icons and logos. A collection of hands-on tutorials show you how to combine lines, shapes and text of different types and styles to build up a picture.

A selection of powerful vector graphics editing tools comes as standard. There is excellent support for paths, gradients, layers, alpha transparency and text flow control. An extensive library of filters allow you to apply realistic effects and extensions allow you to work with bitmaps, barcodes and printing marks, amongst other things.

Most of the common vector formats are supported, including PDF, Adobe Illustrator and AutoCAD files, and it has unrivalled support for the SVG web graphics standard.

Between the suggested packages:

• dia: to export Dia shapes;
• libsvg-perl: to import .txt files (txt2svg extension);
• python3-packaging: used by the Optimized SVG extension;
• python3-uniconvertor: enables several import/export extensions;
• pstoedit: to work with eps files;
• ruby: there are several extensions written in ruby;

LibreCAD is an application for computer aided design (CAD) in two dimensions (2D). With LibreCAD you can create technical drawings such as plans for buildings, interiors, mechanical parts or schematics and diagrams.

Pencil2D is an animation/drawing software for Mac OS X, Windows, and Linux. It lets you create traditional hand-drawn animation (cartoon) using both bitmap and vector graphics.

The basic features of Pencil2D are:

• layers support (separated layer for bitmap, vector and soud part)
• bitmap drawing
• vector drawing
• sound support

Scribus is an open source desktop page layout program with the aim of producing commercial grade output in PDF and Postscript.

Scribus can be used for many tasks; from brochure design to newspapers, magazines, newsletters and posters to technical documentation.

Scribus supports professional DTP features, such as CMYK color and a color management system to soft proof images for high quality color printing, flexible PDF creation options, Encapsulated PostScript import/export and creation of 4 color separations, import of EPS/PS and SVG as native vector graphics, Unicode text including right to left scripts such as Arabic and Hebrew via freetype. Graphic formats which can be placed in Scribus as images include PDF, Encapsulated Post Script (eps), TIFF, JPEG, PNG and XPixMap(xpm), and any bitmap type supported by QT5.

If you need to use the render frame install the texlive-latex-recommended package (suggested).

XPaint se hodí především pro vytváření jednoduché grafiky. Nabízí některé pokročilé funkce jako jsou funkce pro zpracování obrázku a vyplnění gradientem.

Ve skriptovacím editoru C programu XPaint je také možno spustit externí editor (z menu Soubor), který provede spuštění emulátoru terminálu spolu s programem sensible-editor.

Pro čtení dat ve formátu PDF/PS bude potřeba balík gv, pro externí konverzi balík netpbm a pro tisk balík lpr.

Blender je integrovaný balík 3d aplikací pro modelování, animace, rendering, post-produkci, interaktivní tvorbu a playback (hry). Blender má své vlastní zvláštní uživatelské rozhraní, které je implementováno výhradně v OpenGL a navrženo s důrazem na rychlost. K dispozici je provázání s Pythonem pro skriptování; funkce pro import / export populárních formátů souborů, jako je 3D Studio a Wavefront Obj, jsou realizovány pomocí skriptů od komunity. Běžnými výtvory Blenderu jsou záběry, animace, modely pro hry nebo jiné enginy třetích stran a interaktivní obsah ve formě samostatných binárních souborů.

Hugin is a panorama photo stitching program. Essentially, Hugin is a GUI frontend for Panorama Tools. Stitching is accomplished by using several overlapping photos taken from the same location, and using control points to align and transform the photos so that they can be blended together to form a larger image. Hugin allows for the easy creation of control points between two images, optimization of the image transforms, and much more.

This package includes the following graphical interfaces, using the command-line tools provided in the hugin-tools package:

• hugin - Hugin panorama creator.
• hugin_stitch_project - Hugin batch stitcher.
• PTBatcherGUI - Batch controller for the stitching process.
• calibrate_lens_gui - Lens calibration tool.

Tgif (originally the "Tangram Graphic Interface Facility") is a classic drawing program for 2D vector graphics. Image objects can be hierarchically constructed out of primitives such as polygons, text, and splines (though the splines Tgif draws are not Bézier curves).

It natively supports PostScript formats suitable for LaTeX, as well as X11 bitmap or (version 1) pixmap formats. Other vector and raster image formats such as SVG and PNG can be handled via filters.

Tgif stores drawings as .obj files and individual building-block objects as .sym files, both in Prolog-compatible fact file format.

XaoS Vám umožňuje zvětšovat a prohlížet fraktál v reálném čase. Zobrazuje animované fraktály v grafickém módu, nebo dokonce i v textovém módu.

Zobrazuje sadu Mandelbrot nebo mnoho dalších fraktálů a umožňuje Vám hladké přibližování k fraktálu. Poskytuje různobarevné módy pro oba body uvnitř i vně vybrané sady. Navíc poskytuje přepínání mezi typy fraktálů Mandelbrot a Julia.

Další vlastnosti zahrnují mód autopilot, změna palety, ukládání obrázků, inverze fraktálu, filtry a vestavěný tutoriál fraktálů.

XFig is a menu-driven tool that allows the user to draw and manipulate objects interactively in an X window. The resulting pictures can be saved. If the fig2dev program is installed, which is contained in the fig2dev package, the pictures can be printed on postscript printers or converted to a variety of other formats (e.g. to allow inclusion in LaTeX documents or web pages).

This package contains the xfig program itself.

You should think about installing the fig2dev package to export the graphics to several common formats. You should also think about installing xfig-doc, which contains the documentation and xfig-libs, which contains several clip art libraries.
