Creating PDF from inkscape

Postby minicows10 » Tue May 11, 2010 2:04 am

Hi,

I'm creating PDFs from GIS software and then opening/importing them into Inkscape. I then manipulate the images to what I want and save them as a PDF. When I view the PDF there is only a partial image of what I created. Why does it do this and how can I rectify the problem?

Many thanks

Christina

Without a specific example file, it will be hard to tell. My first guess is it could be a bug with clipping paths and transformations but I couldn't say without a file.

Perhaps the best bet would be to upload an example to https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/

Thanks for that, but just realized I hadn't checked the size of the canvas and I've sorted it now.
