tracing lines from a bitmap
by Francois du Toit 06 Dec '07

06 Dec '07

I want to trace a map from a bitmap, and using the built in tracing tools I get a reasonable trace. But I was wondering if there isn't a way to trace bitmap lines not as a path shaped as the outline of the bitmap lines, but as a single path going through the center of those bitmap lines. In other words, some kind of line recognition. I tried the edge detection, but that gives you two lines - not really what is required. Thanks for any help.

Your options are limited to either emf/wmf or eps, but I've found that eps produces the best results.... well, at least for _my_ documents that is.

As a linux user I have little experience with Office vector formats. Which formats that Inkscape can export works best with Office (2003 or 2007)? Thanks

Icons do not show up
by Sridhar M.A. 05 Dec '07

05 Dec '07

I installed the development version of inkscape from http://inkscape.modevia.com/ap/?M=D The version that I downloaded and installed is inkscape200711070317.package When I try to run the program, the inkscape window does not contain any icons :-( I am attaching a screenshot of the same. It also prints to the console messages to the effect that it cannot draw the icons. I am also attaching the log of that. Can this be fixed locally or do I have to wait till the next version is released. From the same site, inkscape200710270316.package works well.

CAPS lock problem
by Sridhar M.A. 05 Dec '07

05 Dec '07

I am using the development version of inkscape (inkscape200710270316.package). After I choose to enter text, if I press the Caps lock key, it does not light up. But, the characters come out in uppercase. Any pointers to this problem would be helpful.

OTF fonts not seen

Hi... My previous post went a bit unnoticed.... Opentype fonts do not appear on my font list (Windoze)... Hmmm anything I have not done properly? The wiki is not very talkative about it, anyone has a clue? Cédric
