Hi,
With PDF export, it is now possible to make the PDF page the size of the entire drawing, instead of the same as SVG page as before by the "Export drawing, not page" checkbox in PDF export options. Also, you can export a single object from a complex document to PDF if you specify the ID of that object in the "Limit export to the object with ID" field; the page of such PDF will be the same size as the bounding box of that object and will show only that object (all others will be hidden).
This is a great and useful feature.
From now on we can have all drawings in a single svg file, and have
inkscape export them to several pdf files, which is very convenient. This opens up a few nice possibilities. For instance, we can then use them in an article (pdflatex, xetex), or we can draw all slides in a single svg file and export them to several pdf files and then merge them together to make a pdf presentation (using a simple Makefile)
Kudos to you all
