Hi. I need paste a long text in my image, and I would like to add the text spacing, i mean the space between two letters. I found out i can use Alt+Right, but using this way i need to add the space after every single symbol. Is there a way to do it automagically? thanks a lot.

Is there an available win32 build with inkboard enabled?
by Noam Raphael 26 Dec '05

26 Dec '05

Hello, I'm interested in a free "whiteboard" program, for teaching over the internet. I saw that inkscape is supposed to include inkboard, which sounds like it should do exactly what I want. Is there an available build of it for windows? I simply have zero experience with building programs on windows. Thanks, Noam Raphael

New set of crispy icons for Inkscape
by Andre Sousa 25 Dec '05

25 Dec '05

Hello all, I've made a new set of Icons for Inkscape ("crispy_icons.svg"). You may find them in may home page along with some crude instruction... http://placide.home.sapo.pt/inkscape/index.html I know it is not a beauty?!? My goal was to make icons: - Crispy - Similar to the ones from the stock icons (gnome) Since 16x16 px icons are quite small I create a pixel grid and made the icons this exact same size. Of course if, for some reason, we change their size, they won't look as good anymore (but who wants to do that?!). the file is a little bit bigger than the original. If this is an issue, I can try to make it smaller (I don't know if it is possible). I left some icons on the up right corner of the page since I don't know what they are for?! Of course feel free to do what ever you want with them they are totaly free, use and abuse (GPL or whatever, I have to read it some day!). Anyway, this is my small contribution to this amazing project... Plácido Sousa. PS: I am planing to put them in the Wiki page about interface/icons but it doesn't let me. It keep sending me this message. "Editing not allowed without detailed instruction following" ?!? If anyone wants to put them there I you'd apreciate.

Hi all, I have problems with printing since 0.41. I set page A4, draw graphics and print. But all is moved by half of a page up on paper. I've made it by Print direct.. "| lp" before, but this function disappeared. Running on gentoo64, cups-1.1.23-r4. All other apps are printing well. Any ideas?

Mac OSX 10.4.3 issue
by Matt Jordan 23 Dec '05

23 Dec '05

Hello, I had recommended Inkscape to a friend who, it turns out, uses Mac OSX 10.4.3 and he had trouble. I thought I'd pass along his response (see below) just in case it's helpful to the developers and just in case someone can pass along a fix. (I use Inkscape on Win XP and have no knowledge of Mac stuff, so my apologies if this is already known.) Matt > >Hey, Matt! > >Unfortunately, Inkscape doesn't play nice with Mac OSX 10.4.3. It >requests that you install something called X11 (a Mac download), but >that software will not install because it is out of date vis-a-vis >10.4.3. > >

PDF bounding box on Linux
by David Finlayson 23 Dec '05

23 Dec '05

When I SAVE AS pdf a drawing with a custom page size, the PDF always looks like it's on A4 paper---even when the drawing is a fraction of that size. Is there a way to get a proper bounding box on the drawing? I've found that the only thing that works is to save as EPS, then use eps2pdf to convert the drawing. It works, but it rasterizes the drawing in evince and looks like crap. There has been a lot of traffic on the mailing list about PDF, from which I've gleaned that there are problems with PDF, but I wasn't able to nail down exactly what works today on what platforms, and how best to convert an Inkscape drawing to PDF today. (on Linux) Thanks for any clarifications I'm using inkscape-0.42.2, built from .tar.bz source on Ubuntu 5.10 -- David Finlayson Marine Geology & Geophysics School of Oceanography Box 357940 University of Washington Seattle, WA 98195-7940 USA Office: Marine Sciences Building, Room 112 Phone: (206) 616-9407 Web: http://students.washington.edu/dfinlays
