When creating Hex diagrams for printed media, you can use raster graphics (if their resolution is high enough) or use a vector graphics application. Some tools specific to Hex have been created:

  • Meron Brouwer's hexgame is a package for LaTeX
  • Tom Ace's golem2eps is an excellent still-improving EPS creator from a SGF file.
  • Cameron Browne has a tool for setting Hex diagrams, which he used in his book.
  • It is possible to type Hex boards directly into text by using one of the Unicode and ASCII boards
  • A website for drawing diagrams and exporting them in SVG format: [1]
  • Some LaTeX code for drawing diagrams with tikz: [2]
