Not related to inkscape, but here are the methods I've figured out tomerge and cut up PDF documents with Linux:1. I've had good luck merging PDF documents together with the pdftkutility, you can pick and place specific pages, rotate, and do all sortsof other transformations. Ie:pdftk A=file1.pdf B=file2.pdf C=file3.pdf cat A B1-5 C1R output output.pdf2. For splitting a PDF into sub-pages, I've had good luck with usingghostscript to do that sort of editing.

Thx Heathenx, dHi Donn:You could try hiding all the elements you don't want on one page andthen export to pdf without selecting an id. This method seemed to workok for me, when I used it for the JessyInk export.
The export scriptworks on layers, but since they are really just groups, you should beable to quite easily modify it for your needs.Cheers,Hannes-Free Software Download: Index, Search & Analyze Logs and other IT data inReal-Time with Splunk.

Create your file in Inkscape.2. Save the file; this is your master.3.
Create one copy of the master file for each page you wish to print.4. Open each of the copies in an text editor (do this one file at a time).4a Using the text editor adjust the width and height to be the size of a printed page.4b Still using the text editor, add a ViewBox with an appropriate offset.4c. Save the modified file and exit the text editor.5. On 07:08, crjw wrote: This can be done with a ViewBox.Another clever angle. And I can see it lending itself to apartially scripted solution.It's a pita to open each 'sliding master' svg in inskcape and manuallysave copy as pdf, I wonder what's going on with the command line in 0.47?Thanks for your idea!d-Free Software Download: Index, Search & Analyze Logs and other IT data inReal-Time with Splunk.

That post is for Windows-only, proprietary, commercialsoftware.I understand the fact that it's very hard to sell commercial softwarethese days unless it's a phone app, and appreciate that the poster hasfew options that don't cost considerable money and probably not hit histarget audience. I understand that the days of Philippe Kahn making acompiler in his garage and making a million dollars are gone. Theposter has my sympathy.But personally, and your mileage may vary, I just don't think it'sappropriate to post a Windows-only proprietary software on a freesoftware mailing list.SteveTSteve Litt.

For this kind of things there is posterazor:Does exactly the same thing. The only thing missing is the integrationwith inkscape.
My wife use it all the time exactly for sewing patternsand it works great. You export your page from inkscape and put itthrough posterazor and voilla.
You have your sewing pattern.I too don't have a problem with being commercial, but I do have aproblem with it not being free software and being limited to Windows.-Posted via.-Flow-based real-time traffic analytics software.

It iscommercial and Windows only (at the moment) - but I thought that it maybe useful for some users searching for a solution to this problem. Ican't find any stats on it, but I assume that the majority of Inkscapeusers do use Windows simply due to its 70% market share (according tow3schools)?It is written using the.net runtimes so it would need to run with Mono,and so there is some work to do there first. Whether it is worthinvesting the time depends on feedback from the Windows version and howmany users need this solution. I'm also not against making this opensource in the future.It is actually quite different from posterazor, which does not preservevector graphics or text into the PDF - nor can it create PDF layers. SoI feel that this tool is filling a useful niche until Inkscape cansupport multiple pages.Anyway, thank you for your time - I won't post again on the subject.-Posted via.-Flow-based real-time traffic analytics software.
