SVG conversion using rsvg-convert #108

Closed shiblon closed 8 years ago

shiblon commented 8 years ago

Originally reported on Google Code with ID 95

rsvg-convert is capable of converting SVGs to PDFs without rasterising. It's a smaller
tool than Inkscape and should probably be used instead. It's been included as librsvg2-bin
in at least Debian and Ubuntu for several years now.

NB: I haven't managed to scale the converted PDF properly, this could be a blocker
for rsvg-convert.

This sounds interesting, and if you can get it working properly, it does seem like a
better default.

I would be happy to look at this again once you've had some good experience making
it work :)

Also, I'd need to be able to easily get it for macs, which might be a blocker.  Do let
me know what you find out.  Meanwhile, I'm closing this bug.  Please reopen if you
get more information.
