I don't know if her preferred DTP software will import SVG files. What we have to deal with is, MS Publisher 2010 must be able to utilize the finished file. There's no option there. People think MS stuff is the be all end all and simply won't consider anything else. :-(
So, instead of having a single vector file that can be easily scaled to any size, we may end up exporting a number of different sizes of jpgs for everyone else to use.

there a few svg to.... converters online, a search should turn up a few depending on what format you want to convert to.
I take it the DTP software cannot use svg as that IS vector.

She is using Inkscape for Windows, without company permission. :-) And she does not have the authority to force any changes. They already told her to stop using a DTP program she likes in lieu of MS Publisher, but she got so frustrated with the extra work to get things done with MS Publisher, she went back to the program she was using before. I don't know if anyone in her company has Adobe Illustrator, or it's successor if there is one. Do you know of any program that would convert an SVG file to some other format? Right now, the temp answer may be to save a PDF, but we're searching for something that will let other users have a vector file to work with.

As you might snidely guess, is MS software. :-(Please use inkscape for windows. There is no point trying to convert to wmf or other sub-standard vector format if the user is on windows. It's not like we're charging a lot of money for the windows version of inkscape ;-) SVG files can also be opened by Adobe Illustrator and viewed using a web browser such as Firefox, Chrome and even IE 8+ Martin, ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Slashdot TV.
