Title: Convert strokes to fills (SVG files)
Post by: MartinE on November 11, 2016, 06:19:45 AM

Hi Everybody,

I'm new to this and have following problem with SVG files.
I downloaded icons in svg format from thenounproject (.) com and wanted to great a font in ICOMOON. But icomoon says I have to convert the svg's from strokes to fills. How does that work?


By the way... how I'm gonna set up English as language in Inkscape?

Thanks for help.

Welcome!

Path menu > Stroke to Path

When you start the Inkscape installation, the first thing you should have seen (at least this is how it is with Windows) is a small window prompting you to choose a language.  However you can still change it later.  Inkscape Preferences > Interface > Language.  And don't forget to restart Inkscape, so your choice will take effect.
