This blog post solved it for me:Īfter that I was able to select Extensions->Textext from my Inkscape menu bar. Then I installed Pstoedit via the Ubuntu package managerĪfter that I was presented with an Error from some python modules. Installation instructions can be read here.įirst I placed the extension files in the ~/.config/inkscape/extensions folder. Installing it was a bit tricky for me (Inkscape 0.48). Get the Inkscape plugin textext from here. This means after exporting and including the PDF in your document scaling your graphic will cause the text to scale too -> Possibly undesired effects No problem within Inkscape of course (objects can be edited by selecting them and using the Extensions->Textext menu item).

Text becomes a SVG picture and can not be edited outside of Inkscape. Render the code directly in you Inkscape document, including line breaks etc. Tex code can be typed but is not rendered, hence you may need to adjust the x,y positioning values later in your document -> annoying.įurther, no line break is supported and you need to add a parbox or minipage or something later manually Use the PDF+LaTeX export built into Inkscape There are two ways to include LaTeX input. Here an Inkscape answer (summarizing the comments and some additional info).
