Re: [Inkscape-devel] PDF import extension

OK, I compiled Inkscape with poppler. Now what? All I see in the Import dialog list is "Adobe PDF" and it does not work - imports just an empty group for any PDF files I tried. Have you added yours to the list of input extensions? It would be nice, for now, to name it something like "PDF (via poppler)" so it is obvious what one uses. Later, when we switch to the poppler one completely and remove the old sketch/pstoedit/gs hacks, we will rename it to just "PDF".

And by the way, then we'll need to bind the .AI extension to this importer as well, because most AI files these days are PDF-based and should work with poppler. The old perl script can then be renamed "AI (versions before 7.0)" or just removed altogether as it's not maintained.
