Adobe Illustrator

Adobe Illustrator, commonly referred to as "AI", is an industry-standard software for vector illustration applied in publishing, multimedia, and online images.

Image-Pro Plus

This is a powerful image processing software that can also perform in-depth analysis on images. It is widely used for processing, enhancing, and analyzing 2D and 3D images. The software has a built-in 3D imaging tool that allows users to apply 3D filters directly. The filters use the most advanced operation-based true three-dimensional pixel 3D filters, and users can also use the built-in OpenGL 3D browser for interactive 3D volume rendering.

ACDSCanvas.plus.GIS

This is a vector drawing software that seamlessly integrates tools for painting, image editing, and web design to export artwork in various formats, including animation and web-ready files. It bundles tools for bitmap editing, presentation, web graphics, and vector drawing in its clip art library.

SigmaPlot

This is the best scientific graphing software. This software allows you to create any required graphics. You can insert multiple horizontal or vertical axes, specify the direction of the error bars, and make your graphs more dazzling. Just use SigmaPlot to create the graph, which can be dynamically connected to other software for display and can be outputted in graphic formats such as EPS, TIFF, JPEG, etc.

Origin

Origin is a popular professional function plotting software produced by OriginLab Corporation. Origin's data analysis mainly includes various sophisticated mathematical analysis functions such as statistics, signal processing, image processing, peak analysis, and curve fitting. Origin's plotting is template-based, Origin itself provides dozens of 2D and 3D plot templates and allows users to customize templates. When plotting, simply select the required template. Users can customize mathematical functions, graphic styles, and plotting templates; they can also conveniently connect with various database software, office software, image processing software, etc.

Smartdraw_11E

This is a professional chart making software. You can easily create flowcharts, maps, mathematical formulas, statistical tables, chemical analysis charts, anatomical charts, and more with it. The built-in graphics library contains hundreds of examples, thousands of symbols, and shapes for you to apply directly. You can also download more symbols and shapes from the company's website. The total amount is up to hundreds of megabytes, fully satisfying your needs to create all kinds of charts.
