Open Source Java Vector Graphics Software

LaTeXDraw is a graphical drawing editor for LaTeX. LaTeXDraw can be used to 1) generate PSTricks code; 2) directly create PDF or PS pictures.

A multiplatform vector drawing program with a complete library of electronic symbols. Schematics and drawings are stored in a very compact text format. There is no netlist concept behind the drawings (so no simulation, and this is a choice) but this allows a great graphical flexibility and ease of use, making FidoCadJ the perfect tool for exchange sketches in forum and newsgroup discussions with a few clicks. Drawings can be exported in several graphic formats, such as pdf. Follow the development live on Twitter: https://twitter.com/davbucci

Planetiler (pla·nuh·tai·lr, formerly named "Flatmap") is a tool that generates Vector Tiles from geographic data sources like OpenStreetMap. Planetiler aims to be fast and memory-efficient so that you can build a map of the world in a few hours on a single machine without any external tools or database. Vector tiles contain raw point, line, and polygon geometries that clients like MapLibre can use to render custom maps in the browser, native apps, or on a server. Planetiler packages tiles into an MBTiles (SQLite) or PMTiles file that can be served using tools like TileServer GL or Martin or even queried directly from the browser. See awesome-vector-tiles for more projects that work with data in this format. Planetiler works by mapping input elements to vector tile features, flattening them into a big list, and then sorting by tile ID to group them into tiles.

JaxoDraw is a tool to generate Feynman diagrams in a mouse click-and-drag fashion. Graphs can be exported to a variety of graphics formats and arbitrary latex code can be used for labels to produce high-quality publishing-style figures.

TrueType fonts editor. Allows for editing vector-based glyphs

Drawj2d creates technical line drawings using a descriptive language. It writes pdf, svg, eps, emf and dxf vector graphics or png images. It runs on all platforms that run Java. It is inspired by Asymptote but with a tcl-like syntax and 2D only.

TouchGraph provides a set of interfaces for graph visualization using force-based layout and focus+context techniques. For now only older code is available, but we are planning to release new versions as well.

NoteLab is an advanced "digital notebook" specifically designed for tablet computers. With its stroke smoothing, antialiasing, and "smart rendering," NoteLab provides a beautiful and powerful note taking environment on any operating system.

Jarnal is a plattform-indepenent programm written in Java for notetaking, sketching and PDF-/picture-annotating. It works like a normal notepad with the difference of being digital. It is thought to be used with a stylus on tablet-pcs.

SVG Graphics Editor written in Java

ImageStone is a powerful C++ class library for image manipulation. Its features include load, save, display, transformation, and nearly 100 special image effects. It can be used cross platform (includes Windows, Linux, Mac), and especially under windows it can be used as a DIB wrapper class.

A Java-based tool for creating, designing and distributing graphical trees that represent syntactic construction of sentences. Useful for drawing trees under X-bar generative theory or any other correlated application.

AlDraw is a program for creating geometrical constructions. Examples of pictures made with it are at https://picasaweb.google.com/apstrinka/Constructions?authuser=0&feat=directlink

Filtered is a cross-platform tool for editing SVG filters. Filtered is written in Java and released under BSD license. It uses Apache Batik for SVG rendering. There are installers for windows and Mac OSX, and a Java JAR package for other platforms. Filtered is targeted for visual editing of SVG filters, and doesn't provide general vector drawing capabilities. It is meant to be used as a companion for a vector editing package, to allow better control over SVG filter creation and editing. Filtered can be used for creating all kinds of image filters, from simple drop shadows and glows to complex synthetic texture creation.

The JGenerator is the web server production application that can dynamically combine text, graphics, and sound to build rich Flash content. The JGenerator is a free alternative to and analog of the Macromedia Generator.

jPicEdt is an extensible internationalized vector-based drawing editor for LaTeX and related packages (TikZ, PsTricks,...), written in Java. It is also a library of reusable high-level graphic primitives.

KGD is intended to be an animation tool for creating simple 2D vector animations.

SVGCompost is an SVG compositing editor for Eclipse, based on existing Eclipse GEF and GMF functionality and the Apache Batik framework. For further information, please refer to the wiki.

SVGrafiX is an open-source editor for the SVG format. SVGrafiX is written in Java and therefore platform-independent.Our main goal is to create an easy-to-use graphical editor, that allows you to create or edit SVG documents.

Sprite Kinematics Workbench is a tool that allow to create 2D animations by specifying the motion of image segments. You can give life to a stickman or to anything else your imagination can think of.

TeXGrapher is an application for drawing graphs and exporting them into code for GraphTeX, which is a package for LaTeX that provides macros for specifying drawings within LaTeX source file.

The X3DV Module Suite is a free set of Netbeans modules to code in X3D and VRML, the open standards for interactive and immersive 3D on Internet. With it, you can create virtual worlds in 3D, using the great edition features of Netbeans. This project is not developed since years ago, so you may need to do something to update from Netbeans 6 to modern Netbeans, or use an old version with it. I am in the process of reviewing it and fix it.

j2dcg: Java 2D Computer Graphics and Imaging Framework. This framework is targeted for academic use, to reduce the amount of Java / User Interface coding for assignements targeting both raster and vector graphics.

AnyWikiDraw is a graphical editor for rapid editing of drawings and diagrams on Wiki pages. Supported file formats: SVG, PNG, JPEG and DRAW. Supported Wikis: MediaWiki, PmWiki and TWiki.
