Hey, thanks a bunch, Maren. I'll try these out.

Couldn't find any instructions, either.
Extract: - select multiple text elements - in the extension dialog, select how they are ordered on the page (top to bottom, right to left, etc.) - apply extension - get a pop-up with all text blocks summed up into one copy-able text
Probably most useful for imported pdfs with broken-up texts.
Merge:
- select multiple text elements - select how they are ordered in the document - apply extension - get a new text element that optionally preserves the old elements' style
Found two bugs:
- extract: cannot deal with non-ASCII (e.g. ö, ä, ü, é) - merge: font becomes huge when taken from a flowed text

I'm relatively basic Inkscape user trying to learn some new functions. There are two extensions for text that I can't figure out at all: Extract and Merge. I haven't been able to find any directions. Can anyone tell me what these do or where to find information?
Thanks!
