Problem including svg files with Inkscape 1.0~rc1-4
Hi, The last release candidat of Inkscape (1.0~rc1-4 on my Debian sid) doesn't provide the `--export-pdf=` option anymore. So context can not convert svg files into the corresponding `m_k_i_v_*` pdf. It seems that the `--export-filename=` option does the job. Thank in advance. -- Romain Diss

Thank in advance.
The command line syntax has changed in version 1. See this: http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Release_notes/1.0#Command_Line So it's --export-filename in Inkscape 1.00, and --export-pdf in previous versions. I tried to specify both options with Inkscape 0.92 hoping the wrong one would be ignored, without success; you get only a warning, not an error, but the conversion fails anyway. To make ConTeXt work with both versions, it should run "inkscape --version" before doing the actual conversion, to decide the right option. If the conversion you need is done by tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/ruby/graphics/inkscape.rb you should edit that file and replace "--export-pdf" with "--export-filename". There are two other files where that option is used: tex/texmf-context/tex/generic/context/luatex/luatex-fonts-merged.lua tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/font-ocl.lua it's font-related code; if you need it, do the same replacement of "--export-pdf" in those two files and then remake the format with context --make and the export to pdf will work with Inkscape 1.00. But it won't work with Inkscape 0.92. Massi

1.0 is a release candidate. Romain is using the unstable version of Debian (sid), so he's using Inkscape 1.00rc. Anyway Inkscape 0.92 will be around for some time, so a better solution would be defaulting to the export option of the current version of Inkscape unless the user sets an environment variable (INKSCAPE_VERSION?). So a test of an environment variable instead of spawning a process to run "inkscape --version". Massi

hm, we can have for a while \enabledirectives[graphics.inkscape.oldversion] and use new as default (and of course you will wikify that, okay?)

Thanks for this workaround but I suppose I'll need to edit that file again after each context update…
However, the change in `inkscape.rb` has no effect, even after updating the format with `context --make`… Any idea ? Best. -- Romain Diss

just wondering ... do you need that script when you use mkiv?
