01:17 To record this tutorial, I am using: * Ubuntu Linux 12.04 and Windows 7 OS
01:24 * Inkscape version 0.48.4
01:28 Inkscape is an Open Source vector graphics editor.
01:31 It works on Linux, Mac OS X and Windows.
01:36 Inkscape can be used for all kinds of 2D graphic design such as-
01:41 * To draw illustrations and figures/cartoons
01:46 * To create colorful patterns/backgrounds
01:50 * To create a web page layout
01:53 * To trace images
01:56 * To create web based buttons and icons
02:00 * To manipulate images for the web.
02:05 Inkscape can be installed on Ubuntu Linux using Synaptic Package Manager.
02:11 For more details on Synaptic Package Manager, refer to the Linux tutorials on this website.
02:17 Go to Dash home. Type: "Inkscape".
02:20 You can open Inkscape by double-clicking on the logo.
02:23 Now we will learn to install Inkscape on Windows.
02:28 Open your browser. Go to 'inkscape.org'.
02:33 Click on Download button. Select the Installer option corresponding to Windows.
02:40 You can find the sentence "Download Inkscape....." with this version. Click on it.
02:46 Notice, the dialog-box appears. Click on Save.
02:51 The installer file will be downloaded on your machine. Go to Downloads folder.
02:58 Double-click on the exe file to install Inkscape.
03:02 The default language is English. Now click on Next.
03:07 Again click on Next.
03:09 Again click on Next
03:11 Destination folder dialog box appears. By default, Inkscape is saved in Programs files. Now click on Install.
03:20 Inkscape is installing. This may take few minutes.
03:25 Click on Next. Click on Finish to complete the installation.
03:30 Now, the Inkscape software opens up automatically.
03:34 If not, notice there is a shortcut icon created on the desktop. Double-click to open it.
03:42 If both these methods to open Inkscape fail, you can click on Start menu > All programs and then on Inkscape.
03:50 The Inkscape interface will now be opened.
03:54 Now, I will switch back to Linux to complete this demonstration.
03:58 However, the steps shown will work in Inkscape on any OS.
04:04 The main drawing area is called canvas. This is where we will create all the graphics.
04:10 There are various tool options and menu options in Inkscape. We will learn about each one, in detail, in the series.
04:17 Now, let's briefly learn how to use Inkscape.
04:21 We will create a rectangle shape by selecting the rectangle tool.
04:25 To draw the rectangle shape, click on the canvas and drag.
04:29 Here is our rectangle.
04:32 Let me save this Inkscape drawing.
04:34 Go to File menu. Click on Save.
04:38 I will name it as drawing_1.svg and save it in my Documents folder.
04:45 Here, 'svg' denotes the default Inkscape file extension.
