    Hello!

    I have some artwork which has come to me in a .psd format. Is it possible to work with these files on Inkscape. When Iย try to load these on Inkscape, I get an error messageย "Failed to load the requested file". Is there a way around this issue using some free tools?

    Generally, Inkscape can open PDF files, but it may depend on your setup. Please describe your OS & version, the version of Inkscape and the installer you used.

    Bonus points if you can include the pdf file to test.

    Hi @TylerDurden ,

    I'm able to open PDF files... this one is PSD - Photoshop Document format.

    Ah, sorry for the misread. I would try Gimp: www.gimp.org

    If you have access to the author a file with a PDF-stream might be a better choice and able to store some vector data - which most likely are converted text objects andย vector masks.
