I am trying to use LaTeX font in Inkscape. I have already have LaTeX installed on my pc. However I can't find it latex in Extensions>Render>Latex formula.
I tried to use the command below according to this page.
after updating to Inkscape version 1.0 on Ubuntu 18.04 I am experiencing the same problem. Neither the TextTex nor the Mathematics>LaTex (pdflatex) (I suppose this is the former "Latex Formula") extension works. I personally preferred Latex Formula over TextTex and I was using it without problem in Inkscape 0.92. I have found a workaround but it is quite tedious as it requires generating a pdf document externally, converting to an svg, and importing in Inkscape. I hope this can be fixed soon Regards
I tried to write an extension myself, but I keep getting this error message (saying pdflatex cannot be found) while I have it installed and is in /usr/chare which is a path recoginized as the System Data in Inkscape 1.0. Command "pdflatex /tmp/tmpnw2aqkco/tmp.tex -interaction=nonstopmode -halt-on-error" > failed: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'pdflatex': 'pdflatex' Does anyone know why pdflatex cannot be found?

These are cool hacks I would have never thought. It is really strange that such an important feature is missing and nobody except us worries about it.
