Line 36: Some versions of Inkscape do not have PDF support compiled in; also, text importing does not always produce satisfactory results in Inkscape. In that case, you might try performing the conversion with the PDF2SVG command line tool. (It requires that [[Poppler (software)\|Poppler]], [[cairo (graphics)\|Cairo]], and [[X_Window_System\|X]] are installed on your system.) #Get PDF2SVG from Github [https://github.com/dawbarton/pdf2svg here], additional info [http://www.cityinthesky.co.uk/opensource/pdf2svg/ ~~and compile it~~here]. If you are using Windows, Linux or FreeBSD or ~~MacPorts~~OSX, PDF2SVG ~~might also be~~is installable via the package installer. #Convert the PDF with <tt>pdf2svg file.pdf file.svg</tt>, to extract all pages of a multiple page pdf use <tt>pdf2svg file.pdf output-%02d.svg all</tt> #If necessary use Inkscape to edit the resulting SVG.
