-Draw contains a number of functions for editing raster graphics (bitmaps)—for example, photos and scanned images—including import and export as well as conversion from one format to another. Draw can read in all the usual range of graphic file formats.
+Draw has various tools to help you arrange the objects with respect to each other:
-You can add pictures from several sources:
+* Moving an object to the front or to the back
+* Aligning objects with respect to each other
+* Distributing the distance and space between objects
-* The Gallery; see Chapter 10 ([[../../Getting Started/Graphics, the Gallery, and Fontwork)|Graphics, the Gallery, and Fontwork]]) in this book
+See Chapter 5 (Combining Multiple Objects) in the Draw Guide for more information.
-* Directly from a scanner ({{menu|Insert|Picture|Scan}})
-* Images created by another program, including photographs from a camera ({{menu|Insert|Picture|From File}})
-Draw provides tools for working with bitmap images: the Picture toolbar and the bitmap image management palette. However, it does not have the same capabilities as the specialized raster graphics programs like Adobe Photoshop or The Gimp. See Chapter 6 Editing Pictures) in the ''Draw Guide'' for details and examples.
