shape question
by Patrick Roane 30 Nov '05

30 Nov '05

Hey folks, I am a fairly new user of Inkscape and was wondering how I can create a square that has rounded corners on the top, but streight corners on the bottom? So far, I've noticed there are only 3 nodes which I can use to modify my square. One of which is used to round the corners- but it does all 4. Is there a way I can only select 2 of the 4 corners to round? Thanks- I hope this makes sense. Patrick

Inkscape static 686 rpm install on two FC3 installations
by Asif Lodhi 29 Nov '05

29 Nov '05

Hi, I downloaded the static 686-specific rpm from sourceforge and installed it on my FC3 which doesn't have any devel libs etc. installed - I chose "personal desktop" setting when I installed FC3. The installed inkscape is working perfectly well on this one. However, I installed the same static 686-specific rpm on another FC3 installation with a few more things (MySQL, PostGreSQL, Apache, etc) installed and there I can't get it to run. It emits an error that some-lib.so is needed. Why don't I get the same error on the other FC3 installation? What has a static rpm to do with an .so lib? Please help. -- Asif

Also, please alert the inkscape-user list when the new builds are available, as many people there appear to have been bitten by the small fonts issue and are awaiting resolution. -mental

EPS font problems
by David Soukal 29 Nov '05

29 Nov '05

Hello!! It's been some time since I asked for help here... Inkscape, that I use daily, has grown and improved tremendously since!! Thanks guys!! I have the following small problem: I am creating a lot of figures for my thesis in Inkscape. I generate my plots in Matlab and use Inkscape to fine tune the result and to add annotations. Since I am using PSFrag to get the final annotations in LaTeX, I am exporting my graphics into EPS format. My problem is that it seems as if the font information in my EPS has been incorrectly coded. Let me be more specific. I am using the font Verdana for my text. I would create, say, a vertical arrow and I want to have a text whose center is aligned with the arrow. I do that in Inkscape and everything looks as it should. However, in the exported EPS, the text is slightly off the center. The reason is that the font is different and hence the size of the text is different. The net result is that the annotation is slightly off in the final PDF file. First I thought that PSFrag's interpreter of PS format is broken: I thought it cannot find either the font description in the EPS or it cannot find the font itself (to get the dimension of the text). However, Scribus and Konqueror have the same problem: they lack the information about the font and use some default. The EPS file, however, does contain the font info. But in this compicated format /newlatin1font {findfont dup length dict copy dup /Encoding ISOLatin1Encoding put definefont} def /Verdana-ISOLatin1 /Verdana newlatin1font the references to this font look like /Verdana-ISOLatin1 findfont however, previous versions of Inkscape would create simply /Verdana findfont. Is there something I can do? Does this mean that Scribus & Konqueror do not respect the standard? There's workaround using PSFrag: I align the left side of the text with the arrow and then tell PSFrag to center the text in the final PDF. While this works OK, the problem is that the EPS does not really bear any information about the alignment itself.. so I suspect I'll forget when I look at the figure later :) THANK YOU for any insight! David

Registration marks for printing
by Ben Powers 26 Nov '05

26 Nov '05

Hello! I need to know if Inkscape is able to produce registration marks from several channels on a drawing. What I mean is that I have a drawing with 3 channels (white black and grey), each with their own dimensions, but overlapping, black on grey on white. I need to print the grey image on a white paper, and then the black image on top of that. The method I'm using is photo- emulsion printing. In photo emulsion printing, one coats a screen in a light-sensitive emulsion, then exposes that screen to light with the image (in opaque) in between the light source and the screen. The areas where the light reaches the emulsion become hard, and the unexposed regions wash out, creating a negative of the image, which is then printed much like any other silkscreen print. In my image, I need to place both channels on one screen, and then register them on the page using registration marks in the corners. Can inkscape do this? Blessed Be, Bennyp

Large SVG won't export to PNG--need some help
by Benjamin Orchard 26 Nov '05

26 Nov '05

I have a largish (7+ MB) file (high-res: 7200x7200 px). When I try to export this file the program crashes very consistently. I have tried this on several machines, and so I am forced to consider the _very_ ugly possibility that I will have to recreate this from scratch. This would go fairly quickly, but we are talking about a rather complex document here that I just don't want to redo. I have vacuumed the defs, but that didn't help. If anyone has any idea about the best aproach to healing files, I would greatly appreciate it. I have also checked that the computers in question will export other files, and they do that just fine. As a semi-side note, one of the times this happened, it also corrupted the svg quite nastily (when I opened it in a text-editor, it was completely garbled), and I had to recreate the file from a somewhat dated backup. I now keep *much* better backups, but this is getting to be a real issue. I even tried opening said file in GIMP (which will open svgs), but this crashed the GIMP! Any help would be greatly appreciated. Benjamin Orchard
