Diagram Studio contains many features else found only in very expensive packages, like automatic formatting and routing, rotation, customizable toolbars, professional color styles, graphics import and export, curves, flexible text support, and a library of ready-made symbols and templates. Diagram Studio supports Object Linking and Embedding in Windows as an OLE Server. This feature makes it very easy to use Diagram Studio drawings in other Windows programs.

It's easy to draw and edit charts with Diagram Studio. You don't need to have any artistic talent or drawing skills to use this program. The simple objects can be easily created by using primitive graphic components, and for more complicated ones you can use our Libraries, supplied with the program, where most of the objects you might need are already gathered for you. Simply drag them from there and drop into your diagram. Diagram Studio includes many ready-made symbols that are carefully organized into Libraries designed for specific tasks. For each symbol, you can assign different line colors, pattern, fill and shadow colors. You can enter explanatory text label at any location. Text is entered and formatted just like your word processor does it.
