New Extention Collect images/Publish Zip
Hello,
I've created my first extention for inkscape. Though it needs some work we use it allready and it's is quite usefull.
Its called "Publish Zip" and resides in the filters menu. It does the following:
- it copies all linked images to the current dir en modifies all links to be relative
- it creates a zip containing the document and the linked images.
The zip can be mailed and opened by someone else with all images correctly displayed.
You can find it here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1364270&gro...
known problems: - Document has to be saved first
- to create a correct svg-document in the zipfile pubzip has to be run, then the document has to be saved, then pubzip has to be run again.
- it fails with an ugly error when document is never saved before.
Unknown problems: - only tested on Linux/Debian PPC

Hi,
I've created a new version of the extension which does everything it should. It creates a zip with all images and a svg with relative paths. It doesn't make any garbage. Choose "Compressed Inkscape SVG with media (*.zip)" from the "Save as" menu.
Please test it and report problems on other platforms then Linux PPC.
Download it from: http://facility.lingewoud.nl/hacks/inkscape_save_as_zip/
