DrawStudio is the premier structured drawing, illustration and presentation package for the Amiga. The program contains many professional features which are not found in any other Amiga programs and are usually associated with high priced packages on other platforms.

Working from a clear and standard Amiga interface, DrawStudio contains all the tools required to create illustrations on the Amiga, including technical diagrams and artistic presentation material. The ability to convert objects to bitmaps makes DrawStudio an ideal tool for creating graphics for web pages or for use with other Amiga programs.
