    Impex.


    Hello Friends, 

    *  Inkscape 1.1+  *

    ** Work in Progress **

    I'm working on a new extension to add some more bitmap/raster import formats to Inkscape.

    I'm part way through it at the moment.

    It uses the PIL ( pillow ) library that is included with the 1.1+ version installations of Inkscape.

    Exports to: 
    -----------

    jpeg / png / bmp / gif / webp / eps / tiff / pdf / im / ico

    ( please note this is raster export only, does not include any vector info so pdf are eps are just containers for raster )


    Imports from the above and a few others.
    *Does not import vector pdf or vector eps.*

    Also imports plain .txt files to a very long single line, which can then be put into a frame.


    As noted at the beginning, it is a work in progress with a long way to go.

    However it should be a bit of fun to play with for those interested.

    Appears under 'AAA' ( for alpha release ) in the extensions menu.

    I've made a slight update to this work in progress. 

    Should be able to open / preview / import Animated gifs ( entire animation as svg frame animation or just single frames )
