Ipe converts the LaTeX-source to PDF or Postscript when the file is saved. * It is easy to align objects with respect to each other (for instance, to place a point on the intersection of two lines, or to draw a circle through three given points) using various snapping modes. * Users can provide ipelets (Ipe plug-ins) to add functionality to Ipe. This way, Ipe can be extended for each task at hand. * The text model is based on Unicode, and has been tested with Korean, Chinese, and Japanese. .
