Hi everyone,
I have created an Inkscape SVG with Inkscape 0.40 (the version from Ubuntu 5.04 Synaptic). I then wanted to export it to EPS because I have to give it to a print shop (it's a poster in A0 format). However, the exported EPS was of poor quality. Especially the gradients were not exported at all, and the text looks quite shaky although it displays fine on screen, even when zooming in. I then downloaded Inkscape 0.42 from the website, in the hope that it may solve some of these problems. But I still cannot export anything vector-based which will look exactly like the original drawing. In particular:
- PDF export does not contain most objects, and only exports A4 size - EPS export still does not print the gradient correctly (even if printed on a Adobe-certified Postscript 3 printer), and the text either looks very clunky (when using "convert text to curves") or has the wrong font (when not using the former) - SVG (plain) export looks terrible in Adobe SVG viewer (only text, in Courier font, no graphics)
Any ideas? Markus
