;'''Autotrace''' | |||
: An open source vectorization program by Martin Weber. That means you can convert bitmap images (like scans) to vector graphics. While not optimal for photos, it does good job on line art and poster-like images. Doesn't do too well with color. | |||
: Autotrace has some features not available in the embedded [[Potrace]] dialog in Inkscape. For example, there is a ''centerline'' switch that is especially usefull for tracing roads (in maps) or font characters. | |||
; '''Frontline''' | |||
: A GUI frontend to Autotrace by Masatake Yamato. Frontline can be run as standalone aplication, but it can also be directly accessed from Inkscape and GIMP. | |||
If you want to have tracing option, you have to install both Autotrace and Frontline before compiling Inkscape. Inkscape automatically detects these programs, and adds inline raster to vector conversion option to image menu. | |||

SVG Validator
A validator service (and downloadable tool) is provided by the W3C. It will complain about sodipodi or inkscape namespaced items in the document, unless you've exported to plain SVG.
SVG::Metadata
Perl module and set of scripts to help in adding and processing metadata in SVG files.
Vectorize/trace
Potrace
Potrace is now embedded into Inkscape. You don't need to run it separately.
Alternatives to Potrace (Autotrace and Frontline)
- Autotrace
- An open source vectorization program by Martin Weber. That means you can convert bitmap images (like scans) to vector graphics. While not optimal for photos, it does good job on line art and poster-like images. Doesn't do too well with color.
- Autotrace has some features not available in the embedded Potrace dialog in Inkscape. For example, there is a centerline switch that is especially usefull for tracing roads (in maps) or font characters.
- Frontline
- A GUI frontend to Autotrace by Masatake Yamato. Frontline can be run as standalone aplication, but it can also be directly accessed from Inkscape and GIMP.
If you want to have tracing option, you have to install both Autotrace and Frontline before compiling Inkscape. Inkscape automatically detects these programs, and adds inline raster to vector conversion option to image menu.
Both Autotrace and Frontline can be downloaded from Sourceforge. Binaries are available for windows and linux.
Delineate
Front end written in java that does interesting things with color images.
Online SVG editors
- SVGReal is an online open-source SVG editor. With it you can open most SVG resources available on the Internet or your local PC, view them, edit them, combine them with other SVG resources, export the result back to SVG.

Usage
./svg2pdf input_file.svg output_file.pdf

The Python recode aims to help developers more familiar to python than perl, as well fixing some lacks from ill2svg.pl - supports dashes, layers, textboxes (ascii-latin), and joined pathes.
