Hello Thomas,
if possible could you share one of the files that does not open correctly in inkscape and also provide a pixel-version (as png) how it should looks? So others can investigate and maybe improve things in future.

I get EPS files from clients every week with existing logos and other design elements from their letterhead and other advertising in them.
Problem is, most of these files are little more than wrappers around Illustrator-only code and can not be displayed by anything other than Adobe products, certainly Inkscape can handle maybe 1 in 10 of them and even then very poorly.
This is not Inkscape's fault but the fault of products that save files in "<product>-eps" format. The practical upshot for me is that ".eps" is now a meaningless filetype, much like .tiff, and serves only to make it difficult to explain to clients why I'm having trouble with what they think of as very basic files.
As this problem has grown, I've started to question the value of having "Save as inkscape SVG" produce ".svg" suffixed files. Is it not a better idea, design-wise, to indicate that a file is not "pure" SVG with a different suffix such as .isvg or something similar? I have already sent Inkscape-SVG files to other designers by mistake; with a different suffix this would be a mistake which would be apparent as I selected the files for attachment to my emails.
Should Inkscape change the default suffix for its own filetypes?
