Separated text

Postby arthurav2005 » Thu Nov 19, 2009 1:38 am

I created this text in a single box, but after saving and reopening, it is separated, and to modify the text, i have to navigate to the proper text box. How can I reunite it? Thanks

(Inkscape 0.46 as well as Inkscape 0.47(pre) don't support embedded SVG fonts and CSS support for (text) styles is limited. The text objects you apparently added in Inkscape don't contain any text. The visible fragmented text objects have not been created with Inkscape - most likely with Corel Draw or another application that converted the CDR file to SVG. If you own Corel Draw you might try a different export format (one similar to Inkscapes Plain SVG or maybe PDF?) - but that's a guess only, I don't know Corel Draw myself)

About concatenating the text fragments - Inkscape hasn't a command for this and ATM I haven't seen an extension that can do this. The only way I know is selecting the text and copy&paste it at the end of the previous text object on the same line.
