Hi Guys, Sorry last night was wiped out with family stuff so I didn't get chance to update kicad-pcb.org. I will try and get it done tonight, but in the meantime use the instructions on the Inkscape developer wiki and let us know how you get on. Best Regards, Brian. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : kicad-developers@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
