if you use Inkscape in print workflows, two thing stand out: rewritten pdf import and page margins and bleed.
To clean up path tracings from surplus edges, a changed "node deletion logic" is also welcome.
- atoav 3y agoIf I think for print the single most important thing that I would think of is CMYK support
- berkes 3y agoFor me, above that, is multi-page support. I understand why it's not there, though. But for me, an accidental "need to design this quick" amateur, I really don't like juggling 01_cover.svg, 02_inlay_left.svg 03_inlay_right.svg and so on. Designing a booklet, folder, or even business-card is frustrating.
- JZumun 3y agoI think they added multi-page support in the previous point release[0]. I only use inkscape to make graphics though, so I'm not sure how user friendly the implementation is. [0] https://inkscape.org/news/2022/05/16/inkscape-12/ https://inkscape.org/news/2022/05/16/inkscape-12/
- hjek 3y agoit's really good. very easy to import and work on multi-page docs, even with different page sizes. the developers did an amazing job there.
- berkes 3y agoI was apparently running a somwhat older version (thanks to snaps/deb failures). Upgraded and its there! Thanks a lot for the hint. It looks and feels great.
- flas9sd 3y agotrue, but that'd be not part of the 1.3 release notes. You still need scribus in the loop to get to cmyk, it's not a seamless workflow yet.
- planede 3y agoI expect that having SVG as the native Inkscape format makes this somewhat difficult.
- prokoudine 3y agoIt really does not. SVG is not sRGB-only. You can embed an ICC profile that describe a CMYK-based color space and use colors available in that color space, in native CMYK markup, with sliders and stuff.
