Is there some way to embed bitmaps in SVG? I was looking at a file I made with a bitmap in it and noticed that the absolute path to the image was hardcoded into the .svg, making this svg useless on any machine but my own.
So is there some way to embed bitmap pixel data in SVG? Does the standard even allow that?
Yup, see Effects > Images
Aside from that is there some way to get Inkscape to copy linked images to be side-by-side with the svg and use relative paths rather than absolute paths?
Not easily afaik.
Ummm, file>save as> type "Compressed Inkscape SVG with Media" Although it seems to be broken in my SVN copy on win, perhaps needs some TLC.
Does the w3c have some sort of .jar-like standard for creating svg bundles that include both a main svg and associated bitmaps and other linked content all-in-one? That seems like it would be the ideal solution.
Not that I know of, but note there's an 'inkjar' functionality buried in Inkscape itself for handling jar-based file collections. I believe this works pretty well, it's just poorly advertised. If you're interested in working on this, it could probably benefit from gaining better exposure in the File menu UI.
