Hi,
I want to import an inkscape file into Coreldraw 12 . How do I save it in Inkscape? I've tried all SVG options but when I import these files into Corel everything
becomes a mess.

Thanks for help.

might try pdf format under >File >Save Copy As>

when I import a pdf file made from an inkscape drawing I get in coreldraw: "file is damaged". So that doesn't work.

Are there perhaps other ooptions?

Corel should be able to handle svg files .................................

Can you open the same PDF file in other PDF viewers or is indeed the exported file corrupted?

Did you create the file in Inkscape or is it a PDF (or EPS) file from another source that you edited with Inkscape, maybe adding a text label or some shapes, saved as SVG and now try to open in CorelDraw?

Yes I can open it in another pdf-viewer. (in adobe acrobat). So it seems not to be corrupted

yes I did create the file in Inkscape and saved it to an .pdf file.

OK this seems to be a COREL issue with PDF rather than inkscape's pdf save as function... uhmm things to try now...

Scribus may be needed, save a plain .svg open in Scribus, then export as .pdf in scribus?

yes! this works. I've some fonts used in the original document not supported by scribus. But I can manage that. The PDF made in scribus opens in Coreldraw 12.

Thanks for help!

HI everyone! I generally copy the artwork from inkscape and paste it in corel draw and it comes there... same happens with illustrator. But the problem I face with coreldraw is that when I do calligraphy, The overlapping strokes are shown blank in corel. whereas they are shown perfectly in illustrator. Does anyone knows the sollution for this ?
