Subject: [PATCH 2/3] docs: sphinx/kfigure.py: Use inkscape(1) for SVG -> PDF conversion
Date: Sun, 12 Dec 2021 17:02:39 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5e7abe45-315a-7eb2-d071-8bfba56799c6@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <de8def13-efbc-1d98-acb5-5cc1f6902e4b@gmail.com>
Using convert(1) of ImageMagick for SVG -> PDF conversion results in
PDFs containing raster (bitmap) images which sometimes look blurry.
Ideally speaking, SVG to PDF conversion should retain vector graphics
in SVG.
rsvg-convert(1) can do such conversions with regard to simple SVGs
generated by dot(1).
Unfortunately, rsvg-convert(1) does not cover some of SVG features
specific to Inkscape.
inkscape(1) of Inkscape naturally covers such SVG features.
So add a route in svg2pdf() so that inkscape(1) is used when it is
available.
Note:
After this change, if you have Inkscape installed, ImageMagick and
librsvg are not required.
