Download Inkscape 0.91

Version 0.91 of Inkscape released. This open source and cross platform program is for editing vector graphics† It shares similarities with programs like Adobe Illustrator, Corel Draw, Freehand and Xara X, but the big difference is that Inkscape works with Scalable Vector Graphics, an open standard developed by the W3C.
