Hi folks. I agree with Phil, Molumen and Horkana-Users: It would be more efficient and organized in the Inkscape app if we had "Save" and "Export" options. It would be more organized and easier to understand.
I believe that the Save options should have mainly Inkscape SVG and some of the other SVG options. In the export options we should have mainly other vector formats and raster formats. Gimp 2.8.x has this option and I think it`s definitely a plus. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to inkscape in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/171054 Title: PDF better under "Export" than "Save As" Status in Inkscape: Triaged Status in inkscape package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in inkscape package in Debian: Confirmed Bug description: Currently the "Save As" dialog lists vector formats including PDF, PS and so on, while the "Export" dialog supports bitmap formats (PNG, etc?). In my typical usage, which I don't imagine is unusual, all formats other than SVG would be better considered as "Exports". If I want to make a PDF file I currently have to "save as" PDF and then remember to "save as" the original SVG file again so that subsequent saves go to the right place. I think it would improve useability to include bitmap and vector formats such as PDF in the "Export" dialog. Alternatively, an additional menu entry "Export vector..." could be included next to "Export bitmap...". Another approach is to have a "save a copy" dialog where a different file type can be chosen without affecting the filename and format that will be used for subsequent normal saves. --Phil.
