Support direct SVG->PDF conversion with Inkscape #89

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Inkscape has native PDF support, so there's no need to do the SVG->PDF 
conversion via EPS. This is especially bad on my system which has no epstopdf 
(I have no root access here).

This patch solves the problem for me. I tried to make it as general as possible 
so it would be nice if you could apply it to mainline.

Give r055b96309761 a whirl and see how you like it.  I didn't include the 
option to export text to paths because I wasn't sure you always want that.  Are 
there cases where you would want it represented as text in the pdf?  E.g., if 
you had a placeholder for a mathematical equation and used something to rewrite 
it to look like the rest of LaTeX?  This used to be possible with psfrag and 
the latex-dvi-ps2pdf chain.  I don't know if there is something similar for 
pdflatex.
