During the conversion from SVG to LaTeX as Inkscape carries out, all the positions are changed to absolute X, Y values, thus your alignments are lost in the conversion, as it does not recognize it. But as Latex does not natively support SVG, you may run in to font size and placement issues.

It creates a drawing.svg in your working directory and attempts to include it.įor including the SVG in LaTeX, you can refer to Marin H answer. Then include the generated TeX file, which will automatically import the image: \begin In Jan 2020 and Inkscape 1.0beta2, this command is correct for macOS Catalina (thanks to moazzem's comment): /Applications/Inkscape.app/Contents/MacOS/inkscape -D -z image.svg -export-type="pdf" -export-file=image.pdf -export-latex In May 2015, you could read from that article, that the quickest way to get this done was: inkscape -D -z -file=image.svg -export-pdf=image.pdf -export-latexīut as Peter Mukhachev pointed out in his comment, the inkscape command has changed, it is now (as of EDIT July 2020) on more recent versions of inkscape correct like this: inkscape -D image.svg -o image.pdf -export-latex

Of course, adjust the paths to your local settings. Pdftops.cmd (it also must be named this way!), not needed for Users of TeX Live: off Inkscape.cmd (it must get this name!): off Additonal hint for MiKTeX users: Create a local texmf tree in MiKTeX. For inkscape and pstopdf one needs to add the paths oneself, or I would recommend for each a batch file in the binary path of your local texmf tree (which anyway should be itself in the search path). In Windows only the “ImageMagick” installer does this by default.

only MiKTeX users: Xpdf (actually the included pdftops)įor compilation pdflatex needs the command line switch -shell-escape.Īll executables/binaries must be located in the search path.

ImageMagick (actually the included convert).

Inkscape (for using the technique already mentioned in other answers).

See answer of Heiko Oberdiek for a solution.Įvery SVG file given by the command \includesvg will under the hood be converted with the help of some additional programs, which at least on Windows are not installed by default (the package claims, it wouldn’t run in Windows, but see below): Not all of these are defined in LuaTeX, so you would get errors on compiling. This package makes use of pdfTeX primitives. There is now (at time of writing for about a month) a package svg on CTAN and also included into the big TeX distributions.
