Summary

The svg package provides an user‑interface for automated integration of SVG graphics created with Inkscape into LaTeX documents. Therefor the capabilities provided by Inkscape—and its command line tool—are used to export the text within a SVG graphic to a separate file, which is then rendered by LaTeX. The two commands \includesvg and \includeinkscape are provided as central user‑interface, which are very similar to the \includegraphics command of the graphicx package.

In addition, the package svg-extract extends the user‑interface of package svg in order to support the extraction of these graphics into independent files in different graphic formats, exactly as they are rendered within the LaTeX document. For the creation of these graphics in the well‑known formats PDF, EPS and PS, LaTeX and possibly conversion tools shipped with the most LaTeX distributions are used. If the graphics are required in other file formats, either ImageMagick or Ghostscript can be invoked.

  • fix bugs with current kernel (2019/10/01) regarding file name parsing

v2.02b (2018/11/12)

  • fixed errors with active double qoutes from babel in path arguments
  • multiple dots within file names possible
  • package trimspaces required

v2.01 (2017/11/29)

  • new option svgextension to change the format of files exported by Inkscape from svg to a custom one
  • usage of \input{tex filename} within Inkscape graphics locates files in all declared searched folders

v2.00b (2017/05/23)

  • improved warnings, if package svg is loaded by package svg-extract

v2.00a (2017/03/28)

  • Bug fix for checking stock- and mediasizes

v2.00 (2017/03/27)

  • New maintainer: Falk Hanisch
  • Re-implementation from scratch
  • functionality split in two packages svg and svg-extract
  • package svg intended for including SVG files
  • package svg-extract for extracting graphic files rendered with LaTeX
  • svg-extract: enhanced support for ImageMagick
  • svg-extract: support for Ghostscript added
  • package subfig not required anymore
  • support of subfigures stopped due to the huge number of packages which deal with this topic and the large variety of implementing this functionality; naming exported graphics after their consecutive numbering can't be ensured for all variants of subfigures, so it's neglected
