I have had some limited success using commands like this:

inkscape \windows\temp\sample.svg -i "layer2" -o \windows\temp\sample2.pdf
inkscape \windows\temp\sample.svg -i "layer1" -o \windows\temp\sample1.pdf
inkscape \windows\temp\sample.svg -i "layer3" -o \windows\temp\sample3.pdf

this allows me to export individual objects identified in the "-i" option. In order to find the correct name for these objects, search for them using the XML editor.
If this is not sufficient for your case, then I would suggest filing a bug report at
Issues · Inkscape / Inbox · GitLab

Cheers,
Alvin

have you tried: inkscape --help ?

before asking here, i took two steps:

s1 : i tried inkscape 584.svg -i "layer2" -a 121.pdf
* output: error parsing option -a
s2: i have run inkscape --help
i could not understand about "option a"

i am completly new to this and assumed
something has changed with commands

hence the question

when i run
$ inkscape 584.svg -i "layer2" -A 121.pdf

it shows
Unknown option -A

i copied above command from inkspace
issue tracker (issue #584).

i am on Inkscape 1.2.1 (9c6d41e410, 2022-07-14)
