AFAICS you never told what OS/platform you are working on (and need a solution for) …


I was talking about Inkscape, which is multi-platform.

Re: How to vectorize fonts when importing PDF?

I need Inkscape to automatically vectorize all text upon importing. This is not yet supported by the current stable release (but a known feature request). If you can install a recent development snapshot (0.48+devel), test opening the PDF file from within Inkscape as " Adobe PDF via cairo-popp...

Re: How to vectorize fonts when importing PDF?

I just tried something else that may or may not work for you. Type your text (always duplicate it), then click on Object, then Pattern, then Objects to Pattern. Make a rectangle box exactly the same size as your text, convert it to a path, then fill it with the new 'pattern' of text (which is using...

How to vectorize fonts when importing PDF?

I'm trying to convert a PDF file with Computer Modern fonts for formulas (generated by Asymptote), but Inkscape is not able to recognize it and automatically replaces them with some sans-serif font that looks ugly in math. The import option under "Text handling" is only "import text a...

Re: How do use Math in Inkscape?

I don't find such an extension either, and I'm using 0.48 version. You need to have a TeX distribution and Ghostscript installed (among the required external tools are pdflatex, dvips, pstoedit or pdf2svg), for the extension ' Render -> LaTeX ' to load and be available in the extensions menu. Same ...

Re: Why can't I launch Inkscape?

Does the dialog come from Windows or Inkscape? That "0x...." reminds me of Windows error number (I've seen them when using Windows Update, by which I don't imply that you're having a problem with Updates, just that I think looking towards Windows might yeild more info). But the titlebar o...

Re: How do use Math in Inkscape?

Welcome to InkscapeForum.com! I don't find such an extension either, and I'm using 0.48 version. Perhaps it's not built-in, but available for download somewhere?? I'm really not knowledgeable about this, but wonder if there is a specialized font, which you could simply use with Text and Font editor...
