This is a read-only archive of the inkscapeforum.com site. You can search for info here or post new questions and comments at I just installed the latest snapshot of Inkscape-20809-10.5-i386.dmg on my MacBook. There does not seem to be an option for including LaTeX formulas. With the stable version of Inkscape, I use the textext extension. However, I thought the ability to render LaTeX had now been built into Inkscape.
Am I missing something, or is this feature not available yet? Thanks.

Re: Extensions-->Render-->LaTeX doesn't exist
For posterity:
Inkscape needs to be able to "find" latex, dvips and pstoedit to render LaTeX. So you may need to edit
/Applications/Inkscape.app/Contents/Resources/bin/inkscape .
I needed to prepend /usr/texbin/: to the following line, so that latex and dvips were found. This sufficed, since I have pstoedit in /usr/local/bin:
export PATH="/opt/local/bin:/sw/bin/:/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/bin:/usr/local/bin:$CWD:$PATH"
