Every file this site holds, and what each one can draw.
74 files from 30 publishers. Search by what is in them, or ask for the ones that draw the shape you want. A shape is listed here only if the drawing it makes can actually be READ — the right columns are not the same thing as a readable picture, and the ones that come close are listed underneath with the change that would fix them. Every file opens in the pool, and every one downloads.
