Inkscape now works pretty well with Corel DRAW, EMF, and WMF files and even has support for Microsoft Visio diagrams. This release also features support for font faces beyond bold/italic and improved support for file formats created by other apps. 91 has another nice new feature for web professionals – illustrations can now be exported as HTML5 Canvas elements, making them much easier to put online thanks to web standards. Even better, the em support actually works in this release, which should be a boon for anyone working with graphics destined for responsive websites. The Text tool now defaults to points (pt) though you can change that to pixels, centimetres, inches and others, including the web-centric em. The Text tool has also been significantly improved. You can easily create paths from text and modify in pretty much any way you can think of. There's a new Measurements tool that will live update the length of objects and angles as you move the mouse over them. While the bug fixes and performance improvements are welcome news in and of themselves, there are plenty of brand new features in this release.
