Hi,

you can directly insert SVG files in Lyx. But since Lyx uses Inkscape to
convert SVG to PDF the outcome (and thus the file size) will be the
same. So this is rather a problem of how to create reasonably sized PDF
files from Inkscape files containing raster images.

book cover

[Wolfgang Engelmann]

Hello,
I have created a book cover using inkscape, an imported image (jpg) and 
text.
The size is 62 KiB for the former and 72 for the latter. If I export it 
from Inkscape to pdf its size is 2 MiB.

Question: Can I include the much smaller svg file in my lyx document?
Or, alternatively, can I export in a smaller cover?
Wolfgang
