Tips for getting Extensions to work
Inkscape's extensions allow for importing and exporting non-SVG file types and direct editing of the current SVG document. For more information about the Extensions that appear in the Effects menu read GettingEffectsWorking.
Open *.TXT
- install perl - install SVG perl module
Open *.AI
- install perl and optionally Image::Magick - Only handles Illustrator versions prior to using PDF as the internal format (Version Number?)
Save *.AI
- requires pstoedit with the ps2ai filter - uses Inkscapes internal ps output extension
Open *.PS
- requires skconvert python script from sketch =>> install sketch
Open *.WMF
- requires wmf2svg, part of libwmf (http://wvware.sourceforge.net/libwmf.html)
Save *.PDF (Win32)
- install [[GhostScript]] http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/doc/AFPL/get851.htm - create ps2pdf.cmd in %instdir%/share/extensions/ REM BEGIN @echo off REM edit %GSDIR% to match the ghostscript installation directory set GSDIR=%PROGRAMFILES%\gs\gs8.51\ set GSBINDIR=%GSDIR%bin set GSLIBDIR=%GSDIR%lib set PATH=%GSBINDIR%;%GSLIBDIR%;%PATH% ps2pdf.bat %1 - REM END - edit pdf_output.inx <inkscape-extension> <name>PDF Output</name> <id>org.inkscape.output.pdf</id> <dependency type="extension">org.inkscape.output.ps</dependency> <dependency type="executable" location="extensions">ps2pdf.cmd</dependency> <!--<dependency type="executable">ps2pdf</dependency>--> <output> <extension>.pdf</extension> <mimetype>image/x-portable-document-format</mimetype> <filetypename>Adobe PDF (*.pdf)</filetypename> <filetypetooltip>Adobe Portable Document Format</filetypetooltip> </output> <script> <command reldir="extensions">ps2pdf.cmd</command> <helper_extension>org.inkscape.output.ps</helper_extension> </script> </inkscape-extension>
