Re: [Inkscape-user] CMYK output.

You have to attach a CMYK icc profile first (I'm not sure if it's a requirement, but if I remember correctly you have to save and reload in order to apply it). Then, going to CMS tab in the fill/stroke dialog you can set the CMYK values. The resulting SVG file can be opened (mostly) in Scribus 1.5.0trunk, and the CMYK values will be preserved (you can check in the colors dialog, that the imported colors are in CMYK mode instead of RGB as a regular SVG). Scribus doesn't fully support Inkscape SVGs yet, but as far as I know that's already on the works (you can tell by trying Scribus nightlies, SVG support has been improved a lot).

CMYK output.
by John Culleton 05 Oct '10

05 Oct '10

I know that it is possible to describe spot colors in Inkscape using CMYK notation. But is it possible to produce any form of output file with the colors specified in the file itself using CMYK notation? Candidate output formats would be pdf, eps, or tiff. -- John Culleton Wexford Press "Create Book Covers with Scribus" Printable E-book 38 pages $5.95 http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html

exporting

Hi All I have done a few Google searches but didn't come up with quite what I want, so I'm hoping there is someone out there that can point me in the right direction. I am making some animations, probably in a long winded way, but for now that is all I know and I have limited time in which to do it. I have drawn every frame on a different layer, with the first layer being the background. Initially I exported to gif by switching on the first (background) layer and the layer of the frame that I want exported and then doing the export. Then I discovered the inkscape command line and with a script I can now export several layers one after another. However, I have not figured out how to export two layers to one gif so I have had to copy the background to each layer. For the export I use the following command line instruction in my script: inkscape --export-png=${1}-${i}.png --export-id=${i} --export-id-only --export-dpi=400 --export-area-page --export-background-opacity=1 ${1}.svg However, this off course will only export the layer with an object id of ${i}. (I number my layers in starting at 001 and incrementing by 1 so that I can loop in a script). Is there a way of more than one layer so that I can export layer 000 (the background) and another layer so that I don't have to copy the background onto each layer. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Kind Regards Jannetta =================================== Web site: http://www.jannetta.com Email: jannetta@...2761... ===================================

Inkscape pays no attention to my swatch file
by Mike McNally 28 Sep '10

28 Sep '10

I'm using Ubuntu Lucid, Inkscape 0.47 r22583 (Apr 4 2010) I've got a file in my ~/.inkscape/palettes directory that has in the recent past worked fine in Inkscape as a swatch file. (It's a simple GIMP format file.) However, the file isn't working for me on a new Ubuntu installation, and I can't figure out what it is I need to do to get the program to use the file. There don't seem to be any configuration options or preferences about the swatch file, and from everything I've read it just looks at anything in that "palettes" subdirectory. I've checked permissions and ownership of the directories and the file, and everything looks fine to me (all files owned by me and readable). Is there some trick to getting this working? -- Turtle, turtle, on the ground, Pink and shiny, turn around.

import ai/pdf file to inkscape only gives a blank page
by Kabeer Nasir 18 Sep '10

18 Sep '10

Hey! I have an .ai file with a logo in it that looks something like this (scanned from a t-shirt): http://cafeabel.no/banner.jpg Problem is that when I try to import it in inkscape, it gives me a blank file. I've viewed it in gedit so I know there's something in there, but have no clue how to get it out. I've tried opening it with GIMP and adobe PDF reader, but no go, I get the same blank page. Am I doing something wrong or is the file completely useless? Here's a link to the file: http://cafeabel.no/cafeabel.ai Any help would be greatly appreciated -Kabeer

Font Problem: SVG File Exported Illustrator
by Cuong Tham 17 Sep '10

17 Sep '10

I am working with a SVG file exported by Illustrator. I am on a Ubuntu 9.10 box. When I open the SVG file in Inkscape 4.8, and view the XML source, I see the font names appended by "-83pv-RKSJ-H". Due to this, Inkscape doesn't render the text correctly. Is any way to solve this problem? What is "-83pv-RKSJ-H"? Here's a sample XML of the SVG exported by Illustrator: <text transform="matrix(1 0 0 1 644.9629 495.7021)" id="text9636"><tspan x="0" y="0" font-family="'FutoGoB101Pro-Bold-83pv-RKSJ-H'" font-size="10" id="tspan9638">あらゆ</tspan><tspan x="255.75" y="0" font-family="'FutoGoB101Pro-Bold-83pv-RKSJ-H'" font-size="10" id="tspan9640">る</tspan></text> Any advise would be apprei
