I also decided to ‘play’ around with the software, to get more of a feel for its capabilities. It was time to share my draft graphic design with colleagues, and I opted to share the work as a JPG image, though I could have easily distributed via a good selection of other file formats. Like any good package, as my confidence and ability grew, I was able to achieve more, and I quickly found myself working with layers, different tools, replacing colours and experimenting with different backgrounds I created. As long as I put together my graphic in a sensible manner and keep the original DrawPlus file, I should be able to easily adapt the graphic based on feedback and other requirements. Picked the wrong font and size, a few clicks and it was changed. Not happy with a line colour? No problem I could easily change it. Sure if I was more talented, I could whip together something mind-blowing, but after a few sessions, the quality of my work was improving, helped by the ease in which you can quickly get to grips with what is on offer. Plus when in doubt, just hover the mouse over a sidebar tool for a description.Īfter a while, I began to find using the package was fun, especially as I grew more confident. Even to a novice like myself, it was fairly obvious what many were meant to do. How simple the layout was, yet the fantastic range of tools available. These requirements sound straightforward don’t they? However the ability to easily adapt the graphics is something many packages struggle with, especially at novice level – How about DrawPlus X6? Getting startedĪfter a short time of using the graphics package, I began to become comfortable with the tools and the layout.
I can easily imagine people creating ‘infographics’ with this package.
The Serif DrawPlus X6 graphic design package caters to a lot of uses, such as designing diagrams and vector art. However like most people, I use the same small collection of packages on a daily basis, and could I easily adapt to another? Plus given that I’m no graphics wiz, could I create something presentable with this package? Writing this review was good timing, as I had an actual requirement for the package. This is a review of the graphic design package Serif DrawPlus X6.
