Class 10 IT Chapter 1 Design Factory Notes

Inkscape

Inkscape is a Free vector graphic designing software. Inkscape is widely used to design logos, illustrations, posters, brochures, and typography with accuracy and creativity. This software has many tools that are easy to use for tasks like drawing, shape creation, and editing.

Inkscape’s default file format is Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG). Inkscape supports file formats such as SVG, AI, EPS, PDF, PS, and PNG

Vector Images and Raster Images
Raster images are made up of pixels, they may become pixelated or lose quality when scaled. JPEG and PNG are examples of Raster file formats.

Vector images are those that can be resized without losing quality. They are created using mathematical equations that define the lines and shapes. Their features include ease of editing, the ability to scale without loss of quality, and small file size. SVG and EPS are vector file formats.

Opening Inkscape Software
Open the Inkscape software on your computer to create a poster.
Application → Graphics → Inkscape Scalable
Vector Graphic Editor

Poster Creation
1. Set Up Canvas:

• Choose a page size (e.g., 300 mm × 350 mm).
• Open the Document Properties (Shift + Ctrl + D) and adjust the page size.

• To access the stroke settings, select Fil and Stroke from the Object menu.

4. Insert Graphics:

• Import SVG or PNG images (e.g., dove).
• Use Bezier Curve tool (B) to create regular lines and curved shapes.
• Using Fill and Stroke, colours can be applied to both the interior and the border of shapes.
• Add effects like shadows, gradients, blur.

5. Arrange and Align:

• Use Align & Distribute (Shift + Ctrl + A) for arranging design elements with accuracy.
