Hi,
Is there a way to publish a document as package including the images that are linked to the document. It would make it far more easy to send inkscape work to someone per email and also to move documents to other file structures.
I know inkscape is able to show a base encoded image but this makes inkscape very slow, so this is probably not the right method.
If not would it be possible to create a extention which could save a file as tarball or zip with the images in it? If so I will try to create it?
2Alan Horkan: This is the feature that I mentioned earlier last week as "Collect for output" :)
This is how it works:
- "File - Collect for Output"
- Choose directory to save all related data to.
- Click "Save"
All the bitmap images from different directories will be copied to this chosen directory and all references to them in your SVG will be appriopriately changed, so that your customer or fellow designer can open it and see all bitmap data.
We have an RFE from David Christian Berg on it:

+50 MOD!
A Collect for Output feature would move Inkscape even further towards being a professional solution. It would be great to have collect for output that would collect all necessary creative assets (fonts, bitmaps, and linked svg) into one folder.
I can also see how this would be great for a slideshow using inkview.
Pim, we have support for the JAR format in our codebase, so that files could be collected into a JAR, which is how current OpenOffice.org works.
It would be great to have the refs. changed to this new local folder that has been collected....awesome!
