Hello all,
I use inkscape to create my latex diagrams, then I export them to eps or pdf to include them in slides or papers. One thing that bothers me is that the fonts are different (latex and inkscape fonts). Is there a way to draw the text in the inkscape diagram with the font used on the document the diagram is included?
Cheers,
I don't know which LaTeX fonts you are using, nor on what platform, but in general fonts used in any form of TeX are located in a subdirectory named fonts. If you go to the subdirectory for type 1 and continue to drill down eventually you will ocme across the pdf file. You are half way home. If you can find the corresponding afm file you have all the components, which you need to put in a place where Inkscape can find them.
At the moment I am shooting ducks with a blindfold on. What operating system do you use? What version of TeX: tetex, texlive, miktex or other? What s;pecific fonts are you concerned with?
