FREEHAND

Aldus Freehand is a comprehensive drawing program for the Mac that lets you produce high-quality graphics on PostScript output devices. It combines a wide range of drawing tools with colour support, automatic tracing for imported images, special effects, and advanced text-handling capabilities to create a variety of line-oriented illustrations including technical, scientific, and architectural illustrations. Its curve-handling capabilities and colour support provide flexibility for more sophisticated illustration.
Freehand has strong text manipulation capabilities. Each block of text is considered an element and can be rotated, mirrored, skewed, and resized.
