InkTeX

InkTex is an inkscape plugin to add LaTeX compiled objects to your inkscape document.

This version is in early stages of development, but fully functional. Feel free to try it out!

The plugin is largely inspired by the great but somewhat outdated textext.

Requirements

You need to have installed...

  • Python2 > 2.5
  • python-lxml
  • python-gtk2
  • pdf2svg or dvisvgm (the latter is shipped with texlive!)

Installation

Linux

git clone http://github.com/janoliver/inktex.git
cd inktex
make all

Windows

Not yet supported.

Usage

Open Inkscape and choose Extensions->InkTeX from the menu. You can set a preamble file and scale factor in the settings tab. The preamble should not include \documentclass and \begin{document}.

The LaTeX code you write is only the stuff between \begin{document} and \end{document}. Compilation errors are reported in the log tab.

The preamble file and scale factor are stored on a per-drawing basis, so in a new document, these information must be set again.
