Free editor for PDF documents. Complete editing of PDF documents is possible with PDFedit. You can change raw pdf objects (for advanced users) or use many gui functions. Functionality can be easily extended using a scripting language (ECMAScript).

AutoREALM is a free role-playing game mapping program originally made by Andrew Gryc. This program is an excellent mapping program that can design castles, caves, cities, dungeons and more. New developers are more than welcome! Previously, development were using Delphi language. Some attempts to rewrite it in other languages were done, but currently (since January 2012) there is an attempt or rewrite using those technologies: _ C++11 _ wxWidgets 2.9 (will be 3.0 when it will be released) _ openGL _ pluma framework (a fixed version located on bitbucket) The design of the actual C++ code-base primarily targets clean source code and high modularity of source code, to allow easy reuse of the code and fast learning for people who might join the effort. Current development is located on https://bitbucket.org/bmorel/autorealm . Howerver, older repositories are still here in case someone would like to consult them, and to allow easy access to algorithms they might contain.

Milton is an open-source, infinite-canvas paint program that allows artists to sketch, draw, and paint without the constraints of a fixed canvas size. It combines the intuitive feel of raster-based painting with the scalability of vector graphics, enabling users to focus on creativity without worrying about resolution or canvas boundaries.

A graphical tool for designing finite state machines and exporting them to Hardware Description Languages, such as VHDL, AHDL, Verilog, or Ragel/SMC files for C, C++, Objective-C, Java, Python, PHP, Perl, Lua code generation.

Album Shaper strives to be the most friendly, easy to use, cross platform application for organizing, annotating, framing, enhancing, stylizing, and sharing your digital photos.

ImageMagick® is a free and open-source software suite for displaying, converting, and editing raster image and vector image files.

It can be used as a standalone application, or as a library that can be integrated into other software programs. Overall, ImageMagick is a powerful and versatile software suite for displaying, converting, and editing image files. Its support for scripting and automation, along with its other features, make it a valuable tool for a wide range of image-related tasks.

KolourPaint is a free, easy-to-use paint program for KDE. The official website is [www.kolourpaint.org].

Timeline based editor for creating Compact Disc Subcode Graphics (also known as CD+G or CDG). Both karaoke and multimedia styles of content are supported. Please visit cdgmagic.sf.net for examples playable directly in the HTML5 CD+G player. CD+Graphics Scribe utility (separate download -- click "Browse All Files" above) can now convert existing CDG karaoke content to CMP (CD+Graphics Magic Project), LRC (Enhanced Lyrics), and ASS (Advanced SubStation Alpha) format.

CxImage is a C++ image processing library. It can load, save, display, transform images in a very simple and fast way, with transparency, multiple layers and selections, support for BMP GIF JPG PNG MNG TIF ICO TGA PCX J2K JBG RAS PNM RAW PSD

Scanning albums is not an easy task, since the extraction of actual photographs within scans is usually very tedious. This tool allows you to scan as much as you can fit into your scanner and then semi-automatedly extract the contained photographs. The tool also allows to extract scans of multiple single photographs (i.e. without album) Find a full documentation here: http://dominik-ruess.de/scannerExtract/ Note: The scanning itself is the most time consuming part. Maker sure you optimize that process. (see some hints on the link above.) Hint: **I NEED YOUR DATA**. If you have scans which won't be recognized well give me these (If they're not too personal etc - I won't use it for anything else than to improve this software). You might be interested in my other photography project (organize photographs and videos): https://sourceforge.net/projects/pivot-photo/

Knotter is a highly configurable interlace designer. Interlace patterns are a kind of design historically used as a decorations in many places and by different cultures, some examples are Celtic knotworks and Islamic interlaces. Knotter aims to allow its user to design such patterns in an intuitive way and to provide easy ways to integrate the result in external general-purpose graphic software. For this purpose, designs created within Knotter can be save in a custom human-readable format and exported as Scalable Vector Graphics and in a wide number of raster image formats.
