ImPressTM is a WYSIWYG layout program designed especially for Linux [sic].  It
allows you to create presentations and Postscript documents using fully scalable
graphics similar to programs like Macromedia Freehand, Corel Draw, Adobe
Illustrator and Visio.  It is different from raster graphic packages like gimp,
Adobe PhotoShop and Jasc's PaintShop Pro in that it deals with graphical
objects which can be manipulated on a canvas rather than just layers of paint.

ImPress is the WYSIWYG Publishing and Presentation for UNIX.
It can also be used within a WWW browser (e.g. Netscape) that is
capable of running the Tcl Plugin. The Tcl Plugin can be obtained from
the web site at: http://dev.scriptics.com/
ImPress can be significantly enhanced through use of several modified utilities:
o Pstoedit - Allows you to translate EPS files to Tk for ImPress use.
o Font3D - Translates TrueType font strings to vectorized Tk.
o Type1inst - Aids in maintaining Ghostscript Fontmaps and X11 fonts.dir files.
