An Inkscape extension for exporting SVG paths as TikZ/PGF paths

SVG2TikZ

SVG2TikZ, formally known as Inkscape2TikZ ,are a set of tools for converting SVG graphics to TikZ/PGF code. This project is licensed under the GNU GPL (see the LICENSE file).

Changes, Bug fixes and Known Problems from the original

• Now images can also be exported to tikz
• Added a variable /def /globalscale to the output tikz document (standalone and tikz figure)
• /globalscale when changed will scale the tikzfigure by transforming the vector coordinates.
• /globalscale when changed will scale the tikzfigure by scaling the embedded images
• The path element was not exported in correct coordinates. This is fixed
• Added an entry to specify the path to be removed from absolute paths in the images. This is useful to work in a latex project directly

Known Problems

• Currently only images that are "linked" in svg are exported. Base64 embed is not yet supported so avoid choosing embed option
• Grouped elements will not work. So ungroup everything
• Transformation like rotation is not working
