Hi, I started this thread with the main objective of producing PDF versions of my SVG comics (which are rather complicated, with filters, interactivity, animation etc.) so I could put them on wowio. I have no interest in DFX but it may be a means to some end and I can't speak for other people.
I didn't know you could save SVG files as PDF using Inkscape. The files I want to convert have features which Inkscape doesn't support (e.g. animation, JavaScript). I tried converting one of my comics and it looked better in the Adobe Reader than in Inkscape although the interactivity didn't work (therefore I couldn't test SMIL) and it didn't seem to be appliying external CSS styles. A lot of the Javascript is also in external files so this may be the problem rather than Inkscape or PDF not supporting it. Before I spend a lot of time experimenting, does anybody know if and how you can have filters, images, SMIL and Javascript in PDF converted by Inkscape. Is there some other cheap or free converter which will handle this better?
