I'm trying to do a batch conversion of 340 eps, ai and cdr files to svg files using Inkscape via the command line. I've previously tried to do this using uniconverter but got lots of errors, whereas Inkscape via the gui was able to open and convert them without fail.
The problem I'm having is that there doesn't seem to be a way to open anything other than svgs from the command line. Trying something like inkscape -f infile.eps -l outfile.svg gave me:
"infile.eps:1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found %!PS-Adobe-3.0 EPSF-3.0 ^ ** (inkscape:12078): WARNING **: Specified document infile.eps cannot be opened (does not exist or not a valid SVG file)"
Is there a way to do this?
