Sorry for not replying to the right thread, but this is in response to creating a nice pdf with inkscape.

First of all, it is not straightforward! Second, the other user that suggested using scribus was right that scribus imports inkscape, but in fact it the svg can look quite differently than what it looked like in inkscape.

So here is my solution:

1. Use the inkscape commandline commands to export to a png
2. Import the png in XFIG.

Have you tried "convert" from ImageMagick? That should be able to do this in a single, simple step.
