| Re: [jakarta.ee-community] Looking for help with recreating editable images |
Hi, I wish I could offer some time, but not right now. Do you have a deadline? My personal tool for this kind of thing is PlantUML[1]. There are also excellent tools and editor support in various IDEs. Did you look into that?

We have a couple of diagrams in the Platform Spec that need to be updated for Jakarta EE 9. They are currently in png format, which makes them very difficult to edit. As an experiment, we recreated the two diagrams that were part of the Deployment chapter using inkscape (https://inkscape.org/) and creating svg format.

We need to use open-source tools, so please don't suggest using some proprietary, off-the-shelf graphic editing software. We experimented with several alternatives and inkscape seemed to be an excellent alternative. If somebody has other alternatives, I'm open to other suggestions. Simple is better...
