Apart from what I think, with Inkscape, an artist can create most of the same illustrations that can be made with Adobe Illustrator.
Inkscape is absolutely the best program for vector graphics, in my opinion far superior also to Adobe Illustrator.
Vector graphics is a resolution-independent description of the actual shapes and objects that you see in the image. (3) Here is what I get when I export this figure to EPS file.In contrast to raster (also called ‘bitmap’) graphics editors such as Photoshop or GIMP, Inkscape stores its graphics in a vector format.
Also, I draw three red circles around the feature of interest. (2) Here is what I get after importing the images in Inkscape and saving in SVG format. (1) Here are the three eps images I would like to combine in one figure: I would be very grateful to anyone who has similar problems and, may be, advanced further towards the solution. I got confused in 32 and 64-bit libraries coexisting in my system. I spend a lot of effort to build newer cairo (1.12.14), but I am still far from the purpose. Somewhere I read that such problems could be caused by some outdated versions of cairo - mine is 1.9.14. I currently work in Mandriva Linux 2010 and use Inkscape version 0.47 r22583 (Jan 14 2010). (For me this is not a problem - the text always can be represented as curves). The complaints (found on the Web) are related to something like "incorrect font rendering" when exporting from svg to eps or back. Over last years I tried to search for a solution, but I cannot find that people complained. Unfortunately, Inkscape damages EPS files: it changes the colors and does not save all the objects. So I used to do when I worked with CorelDraw in Windows, but now I work in Linux. Using Inkscape I compose a figure, leaving needed objects, killing unneeded, and adding some markups. Second, I launch Inkscape and import the EPS files. First, I plot parts of my figure using matplotlib and save them in EPS format. I use LaTeX, and I need my figures to be prepared as high-quality Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) images. I have been trying to use Inkscape to prepare artwork graphics for my scientific papers.
