·
Cropping to a standard format;
·
Raster image deskewing for horizontal or vertical alignment of raster
objects with automatic determination of skew angle;
·
New procedure for raster image calibration with automatic selection of
the optimal transformation method.
Monochrome raster editing
·
Selection of raster data, similar to the process of AutoCAD vector
objects selection;
·
Hybrid selection;
·
Rotating, scaling, moving, deleting, aligning and duplicating parts of a
raster image;
·
Drawing and erasing with a specified width (and also on color images);
·
Searching and replacing both raster and vector objects;
·
Rasterizing a vector object;
·
Snapping to the characteristic points of a raster object;
Interactive vectorization (tracing)
Tracing is a semi-automatic procedure, that allows the overlaying of raster lines with
corresponding vector objects, creating smoothed raster objects or replacing them
with vector objects.
·
Tracing line segments, arcs, and circles with automatic determination of
object type;
·
Autoextend option when tracing lines and arcs;
·
Tracing raster objects of a specified type (forced);
·
Tracing hatches;
·
Tracing outlines;
·
Tracing raster symbols by specified templates with option to create
custom symbol templates;
·
Tracing arbitrary raster curves with polylines with or without automatic
detection of direction. Option for automatic vertex insertion.
·
When tracing you can
- Round vector objects width to a specified value;
- Align polyline segments to a specified direction;
- Separate vector objects, corresponding to raster lines of different width, into
specified layers and/or assign different colors to them;
- Ignore raster line gaps.

Recognizing line segments, circles, arcs, hatches;
·
Text recognition (OCR);
·
Capability of training OCR to recognize new characters;
