Line 64:
Inkscape often produces [[#BadSVG|unreasonably large]] SVG files from PDFs, especially if you are only trying to use a small part of the PDF (such as a single vector image or logo on a larger page). In order to reduce the size of the resulting image, it is almost always better to copy and paste the portion of interest into a new Inkscape document rather than try to delete the unwanted content and crop the canvas. To do this:
#Open the PDF in Inkscape
#Delete any backgrounds or surrounding text/images near the image you are trying to extract
#Select the entire image you are trying to extract by holding the SHIFT key and dragging
