Depicter can now export vector drawings in PDF format. We're using Apache FOP to handle the conversion.

After almost two years of silence, Apache Batik has released version 1.7 beta 1. Depicter uses Batik internally, and one of the changes that seems interesting is the updated PDF transcoder (which we hope to use to export diagrams to PDF; we're still playing with it).

Depicter.com can now embed text in your diagrams or drawings. You can use any font size and choose between several common fonts. For Linux users, note that you should have the MS True Type Core Fonts installed (the package is called msttcorefonts on most systems); otherwise, exported images containing text may differ from what you see in your browser.
