Hello, im new to the inkscape world trying to convert SVG to PDF. The SVG contains a foreignObject tag with some simple.html"codebox">

Code: Select all


<foreignObject x='10' y='30' width='1872.52' height='150'>  
        <body xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'>            
            <table width='100%' style='border-bottom:1px solid #000000;width:100%;margin-bottom:10px'>
                   <tr>
                      <td>LOGO</td>
                      <td style='font-family:verdana,arial;font-size:2.5em;text-align:right' >This is the caption of the HTML page</td>  
                    </tr>          
            </table>    
           </body>
 </foreignObject>

foreignObject is not supported by the renderer of Inkscape. That is not so strange as the foreignObjects are NOT SVG. Could be anything supported by your webbrowser really, but HTML would be the minimum. I'm afraid you'll have to make a screen capture of those foreignObjects and import them as bitmaps into Inkscape to enable them to turn into PDF. Alternatively you could try it with SVGMaker, that basically is a printerdriver that creates SVG from anything sent to the virtual printer.
