If you have any questions about any of the above, or if you have made these changes and are still having difficulty preparing your Inkscape file for Origin, send us an email-we're happy to help! Attach your file and a include a brief explanation of what's happening on Origin's screen when you try to cut the file. Setting your Inkscape Preferences to a geometric bounding box will ensure that both bounding box dimensions on tool and in Inkscape match up with one another. Origin calculates the bounding box based upon the middle of the stroke. Inkscape defaults to a visual bounding box, which includes stroke width in its calculation of the bounding box's dimensions. Go to Edit > Preferences > Tools and select 'Geometric Bounding Box'. Go to Edit > Preferences > Input/Output > SVG Output and match your settings to those found below.
The Inkscape SVG file type will include extraneous data that will not be used by Origin. Save your file as a 'Plain SVG' rather than the 'Inkscape SVG' that Inkscape defaults to.*Note that the scale value (underlined above) will change based upon your selected units (Inkscape will default to 96 points per inch and 3.77953 points per millimeter) Make sure that your display units and document units match.Go to File > Document Properties to select your default units. Use real world units (inches or millimeters) rather than pixels.Click on the pointer icon below the cursor icon at the left to edit the paths by nodes.If you're using Inkscape to design files for Origin, you'll want to make a few changes to how Inkscape saves and prepares file prior to sending your file to Origin. That was easy enough to do with an explanation of how to do it. Use the “Edit Paths by Nodes” feature to really have fun. If you want to crop the canvas/page size to the content select all - open the Document Properties - then go 'Resize page to content'. Then, you can do whatever you want to the picture after that. Then, as in the above picture, click on Path, then select Difference. To select, click on the cursor at the top left of the picture, then click on one item, then hold the shift key down and select the next item. It doesn’t matter the order in which you select them. The next step is to select the two objects. If you need to view the picture below in more detail, right click on the picture and select “View Image”. The second shape I created was a Yellow star. The first shape I created was the green square. I created two basic shapes in Inkscape (you’ll need it to edit the images). If not, maybe you can just read on and maybe learn something new. When designing label templates, have you ever needed to cut a shape out of an existing shape? Chances are, the answer is going to be yes.
