Tiled clones is the option you will want to use. Do a google search on "a free guide to inkscape" and go to the section on tiled clones. Tav has put together a very nice guide, and I believe a hard copy is available through lulu.com as well.

I am looking for documentation or tool to repeat a small SVG image to create a background pattern.
For example if my image is "X". I want it repeated like:
X X X X X X
X X X X X X
X X X X X X
X X X X X X
X X X X X X
X X X X X X
(Or something similar to that. Hopefully your email client doesn't break my nice formatting above.)
I don't want to do this manually (of copying and aligning each image). And I need the final version to keep the "scalable" properties just in case I need to resize.
Thanks
