           A complete BITMAP and VECTOR illustration software.


 Developed in conjunction with Shift Computer Software, this program offers
 a new standard in image editing for desktop publishing.  It allows you to
 create, import, and save graphics in the two standard formats: BITMAP and
 VECTOR.

 A BITMAP graphic contains the exact information you see, composed of its
    individual dots (also known as pixels).  Programs like Touch-Up usually
    handle this type of graphic.

 A VECTOR graphic contains a description of all the shapes in the image.
    Because all the objects in a vector image are calculated, you can get a
    much higher degree of detail using this method.  Programs like Easy
    Draw usually handle this type of graphic.
