program. User can choose between several output formats. TpX saves its

TpX – A drawing tool for Windows
TpX is a lightweight, easy-to-use graphical editor for Windows platform
for creating drawings and including them into TeX files in
publication-ready form. It can also be used as a stand-alone
editor for vector graphics.
The output is a file (with extension .TpX) containing the drawing
as TeX code or as an \includegraphics link to an external file
created by the program. The user can choose between several
output formats. TpX saves its own data in TeX file comments so
that the drawing can be loaded into TpX and edited again. This
internal TpX format is based on XML and can easily be understood
and edited.
TpX can import EMF/WMF pictures created by other Windows
applications, including many applications producing scientific
graphs. In most cases the result is nice, though sometimes the
imported picture needs some manual editing. So TpX can be used as
an EMF-to-any converter.
