Scripted tilling and pdf export of 10000 svgs
by Albert Vilella 23 Oct '09

23 Oct '09

Hi all, I am trying to build a humongous pdf for a poster made up of about 10000 svg files of same width but varying height. I would like to be able to automatically tile the different svg and pdf (or ps) export the file to print in a plotter. How can I do that? Albert.

Barcode problem solved.
by John Culleton 17 Oct '09

17 Oct '09

On an earlier version of IS 47 on Xubuntu the numbers at the bottom of an ISBN barcode were scrambled. On my current Slackware 13 install of IS 47 pre 4 this problem is solved. It would help if the numbers were displayed above the barcode in OCRB typeface but I can handle that as a separate step. -- John Culleton "Create Book Covers with Scribus" http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html

lxml and stuff.
by John Culleton 17 Oct '09

17 Oct '09

Compiled pre4 successfully . Some things like perfect bound cover and bar code don't work. Messages reference lxml in each case. So I iinstalled lxml. Still no joy. I started a recompile. I note on ./configure that I get the message "Internal Python skipped" Is this the root of the problem? I do have Python on my system.

Suppressing anti-aliasing
by Antonio Roberts 14 Oct '09

I'm trying to make some pixel art using Inkscape but there's no way to suppress anti-aliasing. Is there a way to do this in Inkscape or are there any other programs that can do this? Ant

Pixel Perfect Inkscape
by Alan Gutierrez 13 Oct '09

13 Oct '09

I'm using Inkscape 4.7 Pre 3 on OS X Leopard. I'm designing for the web, so for the most part, I'd like to have integer X and Y values for my shapes. Editing each point every time I drop a shape is frustrating. I've found that I can set the grid to 1px with major lines at 5px and Inkscape will tend to to the right thing when drawing rectangles or using the pen tool, but not always. There are still times when I have to edit X and Y by entering it into the spinner. Also, if I group objects and clone them. Not all of the objects retain an integer X/Y. They are off by a little bit. Are there any other ways to tell Inkscape to round to the nearest pixel? Alan Gutierrez

Still waiting on 47
by John Culleton 13 Oct '09

13 Oct '09

I note that there is a prerelease 4 for Inkscape 47. Will this be passed over to the Debian repositories as inkscape-dev? I know that inkscape-dev yields some edition of 47 but I am not sure what. -- John Culleton "Create Book Covers with Scribus" http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html

Resolution
by David Knecht ATT 11 Oct '09

11 Oct '09

I am new to Inkscape and trying it out as a way of labeling images for publication. First, is there a way to search the archives for answers? Second, is there a way to get Inkscape to display the resolution of an image in dpi or ppi? Also, where do you adjust the ruler settings?
