Known issues
- This is a large editor: the first start downloads about 53.7 MB before compression, so it can take a while on a slow connection. Your browser keeps it afterwards.
- The project calls itself alpha software.
- When the browser language is Chinese, the editor switches to a Chinese interface and shows missing-character boxes in many menus.
- The tests above ran on a local test server, before this site went live.
When to keep the original software
Keep using the desktop vector software for production artwork that relies on its exact effects, plug-ins, or file features this alpha editor does not cover yet.
