inkscape
An SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) editing program. For Inkscape versions up to 0.92.x, use -e instead of -o. More information: https://inkscape.org.
- Open an SVG file in the Inkscape GUI:
inkscape path/to/filename.svg
- Export an SVG file into a bitmap with the default format (PNG) and the default resolution (96 DPI):
inkscape path/to/filename.svg -o path/to/filename.png
- Export an SVG file into a bitmap of 600x400 pixels (aspect ratio distortion may occur):
inkscape path/to/filename.svg -o path/to/filename.png -w 600 -h 400
- Export the drawing (bounding box of all objects) of an SVG file into a bitmap:
inkscape path/to/filename.svg -o path/to/filename.png -D
- Export a single object, given its ID, into a bitmap:
inkscape path/to/filename.svg -i id -o object.png
- Export an SVG document to PDF, converting all texts to paths:
inkscape path/to/filename.svg -o path/to/filename.pdf --export-text-to-path
- Duplicate the object with id="path123", rotate the duplicate 90 degrees, save the file, and quit Inkscape:
inkscape path/to/filename.svg --select=path123 --verb="EditDuplicate;ObjectRotate90;FileSave;FileQuit"
