But there is another way around. This is how I usually import vectors which, for some reason, do not get imported correctly via "File > Import > Get Vector File": 1. Save the logo/chart/diagram from Inkscape as a PDF (or an EPS) file 2. In Scribus, use "Insert Image Frame > Get Image" routine; don't worry about included "image" looking bad on screen, this will be sorted out when the document is exported to PDF 3. When creating PDF from Scribus, check "Embed PDF & EPS files (EXPERIMENTAL)" to make sure included vector files do not get rasterized.
