DECwrite is a compound document system that runs under X (on DEC equipment,
at least right now).  It does text, graphics, links to other applications,
etc. etc. etc. etc......  DECpaint comes with DECwindows, and is a paint
program.

FrameMaker is also available.  I haven't used it, so have no comment...

idraw (done at Stanford) is quite a nice drawing program.  It is on the
X distribution in the contributed software.

There is other stuff floating around, but I haven't personally seen it run....
