Is there a way to work with big svg files with inkscape ?
As an example, find an svg files (5.6 Mb) at http://serv-umr5023.univ-lyon1.fr/~tlefebure/tmp/test.svg and
screenshot of
inkscape with the memory tracer open at http://serv-umr5023.univ-lyon1.fr/~tlefebure/tmp/capture1.png . My
laptop
(512 Mb of RAM, and 700 Mb of swap) freezes when I try to export a png
of
this file.
Have you tried exporting to plain postscript (.ps) from inkscape first, exiting inkscape, and then using 'ps2pdf' to convert to postscript?
Ghostscript (used for PDF conversion)(?) takes quite a bit of memory on it's own.
