Hi all,
Many thanks for your responses. I am on gmail's web interface as of now so am responding to all the posts so far in a single message.
I am trying to imbed Images in an epub book. This book could be read on a variety of devices so I am hoping to use SVG to render the image correctly (for want of a better word) on each device the book is opened. The book will be transmitted over the Internet in a low bandwidth situation so I am trying to shrink the SVG files.
As for the conversion, I am using the -l commandline option to produce plane svg.
I would love to be able to convert some of the SVG to objects but have not found an automated tool to do this. I could write my own using shape recognition algorithms but that is my last resort.

how did you do the "conversion"?
as far as i know, you can directly embed your binary jpeg file inside svg with base64 encoding. that way, the result svg file should not be much larger than the original jpeg file.
i am not sure how to do this in inkscape. but you should be able to write a small script to do this.
That's usually not really a good approach.
Embedding a binary jpeg file in an SVG file expands it by 33%, not to mention various in-memory issues that can arise. Of course, 133% is not nearly as bad as 500%, but it's generally not as helpful. For editing, it can really cause problems, as in-memory string storage can go way up.
