Implemented features: The new import extension can import paths, text, clippaths, masked or non-masked images, and softmasks. It supports pattern fills (XStep and YStep attributes are ignored) as well as linear and radial gradients (only those using sampled or exponential functions). Gradient meshes are imported, but they get converted to groups of small tiles (flat-colored paths) that approximate the mesh; the user can adjust the precision of this approximation. Only one page can be imported. Users can preview pages and choose the one they need.

This is because Inkscape doens't support multiple pages itself. Use of Gnulibplot A short way for converting files to import in Inkscape is to use gsview and the command 'edit/convert to vector format' to convert any pdf to svg. Easy and fast to use. Incidentally, gsview invokes a command similar to 'pstoedit -f plot-svg input-file output-file' and, after downloading and installing pstoedit, this command can be run on the command line without opening gsview.

PDF Export PDF export is now supported by main program, using cairo backend (choose Cairo PDF in the save as file requester). Before there was the need from external program: pdf_output.inx exports PDF files by first saving them as Postscript and use an external converter to creat PDFs, requiring ps2pdf (Installed separately, included in ghostscript) Strengths: Depend of Cairo version. Weaknesses: Depend of Cairo version. Uncompressed PDF Output At this time, it looks as if Inkscape only outputs uncompressed PDF output. Once you export a PDF, look at its file size.

If it is too large for your application, then you have different options: epstopdf Export the exact same file to EPS (encapsulated postscript) and then use epstopdf to convert the file to PDF. This will make a compressed PDF. Ghostscript An other method utilizing Ghostscript to compress pdfs. As an example see: (Ghostscript on Windows, English) A little bit more extensive bash-scripts (therefore for Linux) also using ghostscript can be found here (English) (German) and here (German) Examples As an illustration, my 72 page document went from 80 megabytes down to 3.1.

Current Postscript support PS Import ps_input.inx imports Postscript files by using two external conversion scripts: Requirements: • (Installed separately), this tool need a to support SVG. • (Installed separately) Strengths: Weaknesses: PS Export Inkscape has built-in support to write Postscript files. Strengths: • Outputs nice readable Postscript Weaknesses: • Doesn't support fill patterns and clipping, see bugs and • Postscript doesn't support transparency and Inkscape doesn't emulate this, so they are just ignored, that is you get the color you would get with opacity:1 Current Adobe Illustrator support The files used by were earlier postscript files but are now Pdf files.

Font Jawi Naskh Font here. Does anybody know a way to vectorize the text in a PDF document? That is, I want each letter to be a shape/outline, without any textual content.

I'm using a Linux system, and open source or a non-Windows solution would be preferred. The context: I'm trying to edit some old PDFs, for which I no longer have the fonts. I'd like to do it in Inkscape, but that will replace all the fonts with generic ones, and that's barely readable. I've also been converting back and forth using pdf2ps and ps2pdf, but the font info stays there. So when I load it into Inkscape, it still looks awful. Here's what you really want - font substitution. You want some code/app to be able to go through the file and make appropriate changes to the embedded fonts.
