[Fink-users] svg conversion to pdf?

2007-02-10 Thread William Scott
Is there a way to convert svg to pdf while preserving vector  
graphics?  I used convert in imagemagick but that pixelates the image.

I've always done it with Adobe Illustrator.

Here is a two-line script I use. It requires inkscape (which does the  
real work) and ghostscript (for conversion from ps to pdf):

#!/bin/csh
inkscape --print='| gs -dNOPAUSE -q -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pdfwrite - 
sOutputFile='`basename -s svg $1`pdf' - -c quit' $1

Illustrator is better (still), as AKH mentioned, but if no fancy  
gradients are involved then inkscape does a good job, I think.

Regards,
Jens
