EMF export problem

Postby 2wicked » Thu May 24, 2018 7:44 pm

Hi,

I have a problem with exporting certain Inkscape files to .emf format (to use in Word). From the CAD software I get illustrations that are combinations of images and paths. When I export it to .emf format the paths and and images are scaled differently:

These are the export setting I use:

Is there a way to prevent this from occuring?

I can confirm the problem, Linux Mint 18.3 here with Inkscape 0.92.x (most current version of stable branch).

Here's a similar bug report, but it says it looks correct in MS software:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1720822

If that's not the case for your image, please open a new report at https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape , you can also mention that it has been confirmed on Linux and current 0.92.x.
