- More import plugins.
OpenOffice Exports SVG Xfig exports SVG Sketch exports SVG and imports a wide variety of formats (inlcuding older adobe illustrator formats). there are also a myriad of command line applications to convert to or from various file formats
With the right 'tool-chain' you can probably find a better more direct workaround than you current have. I would be surprised if there didn't already exist a way to directly convert EPS to SVG.
Yes, ps2edit can convert EPS to SVG, but the result was not as good as the way I took.
Thanks for bringing xrmap to my attention, the website provided me with some useful information. i knew there must be a source of free map data available from the American government and it might provide a good source to generate Map SVGs for the Open Clipart Project.
That was my idea behind my converting marathon. But the result was disappointingly. A first step would be to stop xrmap to clutter the background with stars, even if you disable them in the options. I would like to see a gnome version with a nice SVG export.
